“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life,
and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what
you believe is great work. And the only way to do
great work is to love what you do. If you haven't
found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all
matters of the heart, you'll know when you find
it.” — Steve Jobs
