In the beginning was the Word

"Each one of us stands with great potential. 

If there was something on our way, 

it must be our laziness, or

lack of creativity, courage and effort. 

We should live up our own lives,

and fully embrace the 'edge', 

that is unique to individual."   

- Daisuke Iwase

"Apollo reached to the moon because it meant to be.

It didn't get there by improving airplanes." 

- Hiroshi Mikitani

 " I am not a genius.

Because,

I can explain how I hit it and get on the base."  

- Ichiro Suzuki

"May 'Hard' be 'Easy'.  

'Easy' be 'Deep'.

'Deep' be 'Funny'.

'Funny' be 'Serious'.

'Serious' be 'Humorous'.

And 'Humorous' be extremely humorous."

- Hisashi Inoue
