It's always darkest just before it goes pitch black.

Born too late to explore the world, born too early to explore the stars, born right on time to explore unemployment thanks to A.I.

Destiny-Soar

Some are destined to soar on the wings of eagles while being torn apart by beaks and talons.

Discouragement

You are the wind beneath my wings, otherwise known as turbulence.

Discouragement-Fish

Because there's nothing standing between you and your goal but a total lack of talent and complete failure of will.

Discovery

A company that will go to the ends of the Earth for its people will find it can hire them for about 10% of the cost of Americans.

Disgruntlement

When it costs too much to keep you gruntled.

Disorganization

My life is complicated enough already without trying to introduce organization into it.

Distinction

Looking sharp is easy when you haven't done any work.

Doubt

A man never stands so tall as when he stoops to tell a child, "There's no way you can do that - no freaking way."

Downsizing

Because we're all in this together but there's always room for one less.

Dream Small

It's your only hope for success, really.

Dreams

Dreams are like rainbows. Only idiots chase them.

Dysfunction

The only consistent feature of all of your dissatisfying relationships is you.

Dysfunction-Government

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Government is how we implement those ideas at scale.

Dystopia

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and now they’re bringing it right to my driveway and taxing me for it.

Earn Your Keep

Because a Friend in Need is a Friend I Don't Need.

Economics

The science of explaining tomorrow why the predictions you made yesterday didn't come true today.

Education

You can't put a price on a good education, but you can spend a small fortune to acquire skills that might help you earn a fraction of it back before technology obsolesces your knowledge set.

Effort-Bike

Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never fail.

Elitism

It's lonely at the top, but it's comforting to look down upon everyone at the bottom.

Errors

Failure is just the opportunity to begin again more intelligently, and if you're surrounded by screwups, you'll become an expert in it.

Execution

It's not just the ability to put a plan into action, it's our solution for those who lack that ability.

Expectations

Refuse to accept anything but the very best and you are never going to last around here.

Experts

We’ve got a talent for explaining tomorrow why the predictions we made yesterday didn’t come true today.

Failure Is Not an Option

It's Your Destiny.

Fairness

By the Time Justice is Done, Injustice Has Usually Gotten Away with Everything it Wanted to.

Foresight

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those busy proving them right.

Fragility

Inside every snowflake is a perfectly unique meltdown just waiting to happen.

Friendship

A friend is just a stranger you haven't alienated yet.

Frustration

When all else fails, look to the healing power of brute force.

Fulfillment

Choose a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life. We're sending those jobs elsewhere.

Get To Work

You aren't being paid to believe in the power of your dreams.

Give Up

At some point, hanging in there just makes you look like an even bigger loser.

Go Away

Your absence would make my heart grow fonder.

Government

If you think the problems we create are bad, just wait until you see our solutions.

Gratitude

Don’t blame us for cutting you down, thank us for giving you new chances for growth.

Haters

Thanks for all your well-intended criticism. If I’m not perfect by now, it’s definitely not your fault.

Hope

May not be warranted at this point.

Hype

The power to get you excited about that which you know isn't real.

Hypocrisy

Because what might be right for you should not be right for some.

Idiocy

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Illusions

He who chases rainbows may eventually catch tornadoes.

Imagination

My reality isn't getting any better, but my fantasies are improving all the time.

Immaturity

The problem isn't that we look down on you, the problem is that you need to grow up.

Inadequacy

If things don't improve soon, we may have to ask you to stop helping us.

Incompetence

When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

Independence

In light of the total absence of leadership, I've decided to follow myself.
