QUOTE –I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it at full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is not good either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be. –Roald Dahl (1916-1990)
