change life lots people talk
Cancer didn't change me at all. I know lots of people talk about the life revelation. I didn't have that.
noticed people
If you are hopeful, if you are optimistic, other people want to help you. And if you are down in the dumps, other people may still help you, but I've noticed that they're walking, not running, over to you.
labs miraculous people
I'm a professor. I know that people in research labs can do miraculous things if they're given the resources.
clear people pity
Make clear that people understand what your circumstances are. And looking for pity - that's a mistake.
hard people
It's hard to raise awareness of pancreatic cancer - people who get it don't live long enough.
catch dart deserved labeled life people roughly year
I think that we all stand on the dartboard of life. Roughly 30,000 people a year are going to catch a dart labeled pancreatic cancer, and that's unfortunate. It's not what I would have chosen. But I in no way feel like I deserved it.
passion thinking people
Find your passion and follow it. You wont find that passion in things or money. Your passion must come from what fuels you from the inside. It will be grounded in the relationships you have with people and what they think of you when your time comes.
people research labs
I know that people in research labs can do miraculous things if they're given the resources.
patience long people
Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you.
karma believe people
You can't get there alone. People have to help you, and I do believe in karma. I believe in paybacks. You get people to help you by telling the truth, by being earnest.
talking people sentences
Let other people finish their sentences when they’re talking.
lying thinking people
Most people who have told a lie think they got away with it … when in fact, they didn’t
running mean people
Just because you're in the driver's seat, doesn't mean you have to run people over.
lying people effort
People lie for lots of reasons, often because it seems like a way to get what they want with less effort.
