Randy Pausch RIP

i only learned about this guy today, he just died from terminal cancer. seems like he inspired alot of people with his attitude to life and death as he sought to fulfill his dreams. a couple of quotes i particuarly liked are

"Don't complain. Just work harder [shows slide of Jackie Robinson, the first black major league baseball player]. It was in his contract not to complain, even when fans spit on him."

"Remember, brick walls let us show our dedication. They are there to separate us from the people who don't really want to achieve their dreams. Don't bail. The best of the gold's at the bottom of barrels of crap."
