2 Quotes From Others

I.

Singer and songwriter, Aretha Franklin, on seeing people as more than just their worst moment:

"You cannot define a person on just one thing. You can’t just forget all these wonderful and good things that a person has done because one thing didn’t come off the way you thought it should come off."

​II.

Computer programmer Ward Cunningham on the importance of making fast, reversible decisions:

"I can't tell you how much time is spent worrying about decisions that don't matter. To just be able to make a decision and see what happens is tremendously empowering, but that means you have to set up the situation such that when something does go wrong, you can fix it."
