In a world of bosses, you are your own master
("Marley & Me")
More Quotes from John Grogan:
Dori is a good person with character. You will notice the little things with her team. Her players will go after a loose ball which rolls out of bounds and hand it to a referee, or they always make sure they tuck their shirts in and are always polite. Those things are even more important than what she's taught them on the court.John Grogan

A ban would have been inconceivable 10 years ago. Opposition to smoking goes across the range of ages and social classes.

A person can learn a lot from a dog, even a loopy one like ours. Marley taught me about living each day with unbridled exuberance and joy, about seizing the moment and following your heart. He taught me to appreciate the simple things-a walk in the woods, a fresh snowfall, a nap in a shaft of winter sunlight. And as he grew old and achy, he taught me about optimism in the face of adversity. Mostly, he taught me about friendship and selflessness and, above all else, unwavering loyalty.
