Lighten up while you still can, don't even try to understand. Just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy.
You can't get it all right all the time, but you can try your best. If you've done that, all that's left is to accept your shortcomings and have the courage to try to overcome them.

Interviewing somebody is a lot different than being handed a stick in a 20,000-seat arena and trying to sell tickets. You're very green when you start. I'm still learning things to this day.

Very few objects of modern consumption were designed with recycling in mind.
