Notable Quotable



"Almost everything–all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure–these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."


--Steve Jobs

like million others, i am inspired by his workmanship, his brilliance to foresee future to change our life and his boldness and persistence to materialize his dream

without his invention, my little girl and i won't spend so many fun time with the "talking ben " "talking tom" where she learns new words and we knit together in balls of laughter everytime.

Yes, he is truly inspirational. Really sad he's gone and I guess he's one of the most respected people of our times. And yes, I've seen the youtube clip cos the quote is actually from that clip :)
