“Leaders are visionaries with a poorly developed sense of fear and no concept of the odds against them.”

“As a medical doctor who chose a career in artificial heart technology rather than clinical practice, I decided not to take an internship, which is required for licensing. Instead, I work with invention, manufacturing, regulatory affairs, and clinical application of artificial hearts.”

“I am a doctor. I have long experience with heart disease.”

“People are just afraid of things too much. Afraid of things that don't necessarily merit fear.”

“Fear is when we're thinking about the past or thinking about the future, two things that do not exist. If we stay in the moment, do our best in the moment, enjoy the moment, there is no fear.”

“You always have two choices: your commitment versus your fear.”
