iWoz by Steve Wozniak
"I tried. I really, really tried.

I think Wozniak is a genius - kind, compassionate, fun, and has been completely overshadowed by the bravado and narcissism that was Steve Jobs. I was very intrigued to read more about Woz and his life, to learn more ab" Read more of this review »

Quotes by Jamie A. Hughes  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The longer a life, the challenge is not the distance between destinations, but the difficulty of travelling light. My soul’s a portmanteau packed full, one half filled with what was, the other with what is, what should be.”
Jamie A. Hughes

“From key signature to coda, from downbeat to the sound of life's final fermata, our pasts set the tone for all that was, that is, and that ever would
be.”
Jamie A. Hughes

“Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity or registering wrongs.”
Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre

“I try to avoid looking forward or backward, and try to keep looking upward.”
Charlotte Bronte

“It is in vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquility: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

“The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.”
Leo Tolstoy

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”
C.S. Lewis
