“If you’re remarkable, it’s likely that some people won’t
like you. That’s part of the definition of remarkable.
Nobody gets unanimous praise–ever. The best the timid
can hope for is to be unnoticed. Criticism comes to those
who stand out.”
― Seth Godin, Purple Cow: Transform Your Business by Being Remarkable

“آفتاب را دوست دارم
به خاطر پیراهن‌ات روی طناب رخت
باران را
اگر که می‌بارد
بر چتر آبی تو
و چون تو نماز می‌خوانی
من خداپرست شده‌ام”
― بیژن نَجدی

“ستوان پرسید:چرا می دویدید؟
مرتضی گفت:واسه این که صدای پاهام پشت سرم بود..خوشم می آمد.سالها بود که اونطوری جلوی خودم راه نرفته بودم.تازه مگر چند قدم دویدم.شاید از مثلا میز شما تا اون پنجره.این که اسمش دویدن نیس...هس؟”

“If you are trying to decide among a few people to fill a position hire the best writer. it doesn't matter if the person is marketer, salesperson, designer, programmer, or whatever, their writing skills will pay off. That's because being a good writer is about more than writing clear writing. Clear writing is a sign of clear thinking. great writers know how to communicate. they make things easy to understand. they can put themselves in someone else's shoes. they know what to omit. And those are qualities you want in any candidate. Writing is making a comeback all over our society... Writing is today's currency for good ideas.”
