Charles Wheelan Quotes

Obituaries Are Just Like Biographies, Only Shorter. They Remind Us That Interesting, Successful People Rarely Lead Orderly, Linear Lives. I Defy You To Find A Single Obituary That Begins, "Jane Doe Won The Nobel Prize In Large Part Because She Was Admitted To A Prestigious, Highly Selective Preschool. After That, Everything Just Kind Of Fell Into Place." Instead, You Will Read About Dead Ends, Lucky Coincidences, Quirky Habits, Excessive Self-confidence (often Interspersed With Bursts Of Excessive Self-doubt), And A Lot Of Passion For Something.
