Edwin O. Smith High School Commencement 2007, 2007

La historia detrás de esta cita

Ray Sidney, a businessman and one of the earliest employees at Google, delivered the commencement address at Edwin O. Smith High School in Storrs, Connecticut in 2007. Borrowing Wayne Gretzky's wisdom that 'a great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be,' Sidney urged graduates to respect their future selves by making decisions with long-term consequences in mind. He emphasized that this meant being sufficiently upstanding in everything you do that your conduct doesn't keep you up worrying late at night — a practical definition of integrity aimed at teenagers about to face the freedoms and temptations of adult life.
