I will not accept your guidance and critique unless you are supportive and nurturing. On the other hand, you need to be continually demanding.

Believe passionately in what you do, and never knowingly compromise your standards and values. Act like a true professional, aiming for true excellence, and the money will follow.

Professional is not a label you give yourself - it's a description you hope others will apply to you.

What you do with your billable time determines your current income, but what you do with your non-billable time determines your future.

Focus on being the best you can at what you want to do.

I can't tell people how to have style. No amount of money can buy you style. It's just instinctive.

I've abused myself a lot over the years. But my voice is still intact - really, it's better.

Yet a little while, and (the happy hour) will be over, nor ever more shall we be able to recall it.
