Congratulations To The Graduate!

Graduation, also known as commencement, is a time of transition.  Whether it be graduating from preschool, kindergarten, 8th grade, High School, College, Trade School, or the Military, graduation requires a mortarboard, a tassel, and of course, the Graduation Certificate.

But before you get that certificate, you will probably listen to the Commencement Speaker. Some notable people often speak at a college graduations.  Here are 3 of them with a sentence or two.

Bill Gates to Harvard in 2007

"I've been waiting more than 30 years to say this: 'Dad, I always told you I'd come back and get my degree.  I want to thank Harvard for this honor.  I'll be changing my job next year and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on the resume!"

Steve Jobs to Standford in 2005

"Death is very likely the single best invention of life.  It's life's change agent;  it clars out the old to make way for the new.....Your time is limited so don't waste it lliving someone else's life.  Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking.  Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart an intuition."

Nora Ephron to her alma mater, Wellseley in 1996

"Whatever you choose, however many roads you travel, I hope that you choose not to be a lady.  I hope you will find some way to break the rules and make a little trouble out there.  And I also hope that you will choose to make some of that trouble on behalf of women."

I don't remember the commencement speaker at my graduation .  Do you?
