    7)      Whether you think you can or cannot - you're right!

    8)      A problem is nothing but an opportunity dressed up in work clothes.

    9)      T-shirt Entrepreneur. READY FIRE AIM

  10)     T-Shirt CEO Front. I AM THIER LEADER Back Where have they gone?

  11)      It's not what you don't know about what you don't know; it's what you don't know

  12)     Love is an illusion: Happiness is positive cash flow

  13)     Dress up for your banker, down for your lawyer

  14)     What is the sound made by one hand clapping?

15a)    It is Déjà vu all over again

  16)     Sorry, can't leave until the fat lady sings

  17)     If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there.

  18)     The A students stay at the University, write books and join the faculty. The B students spend the rest of their lives working for
             the "C" students.

"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… The ones who see things differently - they're not fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the one thing you can't do is ignore them, because they change things… Because the ones who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. Think different." - Steve Jobs
