Impossible is just…

… a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than believe in the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact; It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration; It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing

– Muhammed Ali

We are at…

…. our very best, and we are happiest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey toward the goal we’ve established for ourselves

– Margaret Mead
