Quotations to share

"Excellence is not skill, it is an attitude" - Ralph Marston
　

"You took a chance, you did something great. You were wrong, but it was
still great. You should feel great that it was great. You should feel like
crap that it was wrong. That's the difference between him and me. He thinks
you do your job, and what will be, will be. I think that what I do and what
you do matters. He sleeps better at night. He shouldn't." [House to his
student about student and his former mentor] - House M.D.
