Quotes
“We as humans have incredible powers to over come things….if we just believe we can.”
”It’s really important to understand your personality, your working strengths, your weaknesses, where your passions lie, and where your abilities lie.”
“Moderating expectations and having realistic expectations is very important in the publishing industry, and it is possible to get realistic expectations, but you have to be willing to reach out, to make relationships, and to ask bold questions with the knowledge that when people say no, it's not personal.”
