Inspiring Video: Last Lecture

A very touching and inspiring video: Knowing that he must die of cancer soon, Professor Randy Pausch gave his last lecture in front of 400 people.

 

It is more than an hour to watch, but well worth it. He talks about his childhood dreams and what he has achieved in his 47 years. The importance of of hard work and failure.

In his professional life, he and his students pioneered virtual reality and probably made a big impact to our present and future life.

 

Just some quotes, that I really liked:

 

"Experience is what you get, when you did not get what you wanted."

 

"The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how much we want something."

 

It seems to me, that he has always been a man who did what he loved.

 

Stay hungry! Stay foolish!
