    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
    Steve Jobs

    “I’ve met God across his long walnut desk with his diplomas hanging on the wall behind him, and God asks me, “Why?”
    Why did I cause so much pain?
    Didn’t I realize that each of us is a sacred, unique snowflake of special unique specialness?
    Can’t I see how we’re all manifestations of love?
    I look at God behind his desk, taking notes on a pad, but God’s got this all wrong.
    We are not special.
    We are not crap or trash, either.
    We just are.
    We just are, and what happens just happens.
    And God says, “No, that’s not right.”
    Yeah. Well. Whatever. You can’t teach God anything.”
