31. "The heaviness of being successful was
replaced by the lightness of being a
beginner again, less sure about everything.
It freed me to enter one of the most
creative periods of my life.[...] Sometimes
life hits you in the head with a brick.
Don't lose faith."
-Steve Jobs,
Co-founder,Apple, Inc.
