Quotes for Geeks

[FingerNailFixer]

I ran across a quote today that put me in mind of my fellow geeks. It is so easy when we post and someone has a different opinion than our own to take it personal instead of acknowledging it as a difference in opinion, so this quote rang true:
"Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted."* ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

What is a helpful or encouraging quote you would like to share with your fellow geeks and why?

lovely qoute. Mine would be :

'personal isn't the same as important' Captain Carrot Ironfoundersson and Granny Weatherwax

So often as industry professionals we charge less for our services than we are worth wether it be out of fear, lack of confidence or just habit. So here is a good one for that:

If you really put a small value upon yourself, rest assured that the world will not raise your price.* ~Author Unknown
