More quotes by Randy Pausch
We don't beat the reaper by living longer, but by living well, and living fully - for the reaper will come for all of us. The question is: what do we do between the time we're born and the time he shows up.
Randy Pausch
The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people.
Randy Pausch
When you're screwing up and nobody says anything to you anymore, that means they've given up on you.
Randy Pausch
You will need to find your passion. Don't give up on finding it because then all you're doing is waiting for the Reaper.

Read at least one book a month. This is self-serving, obviously. It's a proven fact that people who read buy more books than people who don't read. In truth, I wish you'd read ten books a month, or at least buy that many.
Randy Pausch
I don't suffer from an abundance of politeness.

I’d compare college tuition to paying for a personal trainer at an athletic club. We professors play the roles of trainers, giving people access to the equipment (books, labs, our expertise) and after that, it is our job to be demanding.
Randy Pausch
There's a lot of talk these days about giving children self-esteem. It's not something you can give it's something they have to build.
Randy Pausch
Time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think.
Randy Pausch
We keep what is valuable to us, what we cherish.
Randy Pausch
Everyone has to contribute to the common good. To not do so can be described in one word: selfish.
Randy Pausch
Often think of the worst-case scenario, the Eaten By Wolves factor.
Randy Pausch
Proper apologies have three parts: 1) What I did was wrong. 2) I feel badly that I hurt you. 3) How do I make this better?
Randy Pausch
The person who failed often knows how to avoid future failures. The person who knows only success can be more oblivious to all the pitfalls.
Randy Pausch
Find the best in everybody. Just keep waiting no matter how long it takes. No one is all evil. Everybody has a good side, just keep waiting, it will come out.
Randy Pausch
I am going to keep having fun every day I have left, because there is no other way of life. You just have to decide whether you are a Tigger or an Eeyore.
Randy Pausch
You can always change you plan, but only if you have one.
Randy Pausch
We need to make sure our students are exerting themselves. We need to praise them when they deserve it and to tell them honestly when they have it in them to work harder.
Randy Pausch
It's a thrill to fulfill your own childhood dreams, but as you get older, you may find that enabling the dreams of others is even more fun.

The brick walls are there to stop the people who don't want it badly enough. They are there to stop the other people!
