“I opened a book and in I strode.
Now nobody can find me.
I've left my chair, my house, my road,
My town and my world behind me.
I'm wearing the cloak, I've slipped on the ring,
I've swallowed the magic potion.
I've fought with a dragon, dined with a king
And dived in a bottomless ocean.
I opened a book and made some friends.
I shared their tears and laughter
And followed their road with its bumps and bends
To the happily ever after.
I finished my book and out I came.
The cloak can no longer hide me.
My chair and my house are just the same,
But I have a book inside me.”
― Julia Donaldson

“Great networking is not about quid pro quo. It's not a back-and-forth. It's about give-give-give as much as you can, and if I see you succeed. I'm really happy.”
― Micheal Ellsberg

“... you're not going to create anything better for yourself unless you make a fundamental shift: from viewing yourself as a passive follower of paths other people set out for you ...”
