“In each case, it was the teamwork that made the day and not the contribution of a single person. I’ve learned a lot and feel proud of our accomplishments.”

Naar een idee van Stephen Abram.

Geciteerd uit Out front with Stephen Abram / Judith A. Siess and Jonathan Lorig. Dit boek lag enigszins toevallig op mijn bureau(-;

Rules:
* Get the book nearest to you. Right now.
* Go to page 56.

* Write this sentence – either here or on your blog.
* Copy these instructions as commentary of your sentence.
* Don’t look for your favorite book or your coolest but really the nearest.
