 | I’m a great believer in luck, and the harder I work, the more I have of it. THOMAS JEFFERSON Dreams are lovely. But they are just dreams. Fleeting, ephemeral, pretty. But dreams do not come true just because you dream them. It’s hard work that makes things happen. It’s hard work that creates change. SHONDA RIMES |
