Shannon L. Alder
“We are all a little schizophrenic. Each of us has three different people living inside us every day—who you were, who you are and who you will become. The road to sanity is to recognize those identities, in order to know who you are today.”
Shannon L. Alder

Stephen Richards
“Doing the tough things sets winners apart from losers.”
Stephen Richards, Cosmic Ordering: You can be successful
