“Don’t be afraid to show your flaws. Imperfections are real and people respond to real. It’s why we like real flowers that wilt, not perfect plastic ones that never change. Don’t worry about how you’re supposed to sound and how you’re supposed to act. Show the world what you’re really like, warts and all. So talk like you really talk. Reveal things that others are unwilling to discuss. Be upfront about your shortcomings. Show the latest version of what you’re working on, even if you’re not done yet. It’s OK if it’s not perfect. You might not seem as professional, but you will seem a lot more genuine.” — Rereading Rework | Do I Dare Disturb the Universe?

“The sommerlier pours. You sip. You hesitate. Good move. Never say yes to a wine until you’re sure it’s sound. Try it a second time. A third, minutes later, if you still have doubts. Like sex on a first date, you’ll regret it if you’re not sure.” — Alan Richman’s Tips for Ordering Wine in a Restaurant
