“Last but not least, I

would say you

should have big

dreams, full dreams,

not half dreams. You know, it's very

simple. You can't put

a large box in a

small box. Well, you

cannot put a full life

in a small dream

box.”

- Elias Zerhouni

“Go into the world

and do well. But

more importantly,

go into the world

and do good.”

- Minor Myers Jr.

“What lies behind

us, and what lies

before us are small

matters compared to

what lies within us.”

- Ralph Waldo

Emerson
