Congratulations to all Georgia Tech graduates of Spring 2010! As one among you, I am excited to celebrate all my hard work for the past four years. We have a lot to look forward to, and to keep with the high energy this weekend, here are a few inspirational (and funny) quotes to start things off:
There is a good reason they call these ceremonies “commencement exercises.” Graduation is not the end; it’s the beginning. ~Orrin Hatch
A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that “individuality” is the key to success. ~Robert Orben
Your families are extremely proud of you. You can’t imagine the sense of relief they are experiencing. This would be a most opportune time to ask for money. ~Gary Bolding
When you leave here, don’t forget why you came. ~Adlai Stevenson, to college graduates
A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad. ~Theodore Roosevelt
Commencement speeches were invented largely in the belief that outgoing college students should never be released into the world until they have been properly sedated. ~Garry Trudeau
People will frighten you about a graduation…. They use words you don’t hear often: “And we wish you Godspeed.” It is a warning, Godspeed. It means you are no longer welcome here at these prices. ~Bill Cosby
In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins: cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later. ~Harold Geneen
I learned law so well, the day I graduated I sued the college, won the case, and got my tuition back. ~Fred Allen
