Steve Jobs' Three Rules of Life ...
1. Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
2. Don't be trapped by dogma -
which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice.
3. Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition -
they somehow already know what you truly want to become.
- Steve Jobs
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
Don't be trapped by dogma -

Living in fear of anything is a terrible waste
of what could be a great life.

If you live in fear of losing your stuff and money,
it is clear that they own you.

for the perfect golden fruit

the fruit will be all the sweeter for this touch of holiness.
- Helen Keller

There's no bond between people that's quite so strong as
when people each feel slightly superior towards the other one.

Light does the darkness most fear.
