“Edward James Olmos, speaking at a commencement address, said, ‘Chase your passion, not your pension. Be inspired to learn as much as you can, to find a cause that benefits humankind – and you’ll be sought after for your quality of service and dedication to excellence. This passion will make you oblivious of quitting time and to the length of your workday. You’ll awake every morning with the passion of pursuit, but not the pursuit of money. Those who do more than they’re paid for are always sought for their services. Their name and work outlive them and always command the highest price. Chase your passion, not your pension.’” (Page a Day Calendar)

“The Voice –
There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,

Or wise man can decide
What’s right for you — just listen to
The voice that speaks inside.” (Shel Silverstein)
