The guy who founded Amazon.com, Jeff Bezos, gave this years commencement speech to the new students. The full text can be found here, its called "We are what we choose" and one of the things he mentions is that it is harder to be kind than clever, which i quite like - he goes on about the differences between gifts and choices, (clever=gift, kind=choices) and how gifts are easy really, but that making the wrong choices can often be to the detriment of your gifts. Ive not really done it justice, but its worth a read..
(from kottke - i figured i should start putting links to other sites/bloggers that i find this random stuff from, as they do the harder stuff in finding it in the first place)
