Bert Williams

Elizabeth Holmes
Every day, the humane societies execute thousands of dogs who tried all their lives to do their very best by their owners.

Elizabeth Marshall Thomas

Eric Alterman
The attributes for entrepreneurs cut both ways. You need the ability to ignore inconvenient facts and see the world as it should be and not as it is. This inspires people to take huge leaps of faith.

Gary Hamel
