What is your favorite quote and why?

"It always seems impossible until it's done"

- Nelson Mandela

This quote always reminds me that when something seems hard and unrealistic it's only because we haven't spent enough time thinking it through. Anything is possible.

My favorite season is spring. I love seeing all the flowers blossom and see the colors bring the city to life.
