39. “Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s
thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They
somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is
secondary.” -- Steve Jobs, 1955-2011
