A WORLD RENOWNED GEMOLOGIST

THE PURPOSE OF MY PRESENCE HERE TODAY IS TO INSPIRE YOU!

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE ONCE YOU CONTEMPLATE.

PRINCIPLE IS THE ULTIMATE UNIVERSITY DEGREE AND THERE IS NO DIPLOMA TO THAT IN EXISTENCE BECAUSE PRINCIPLE CANNOT BE DECLARED AND BE RECOGNIZED

ON PAPER, IT IS WELL BEYOND THAT VALUE.

"INTELLECTUAL GROWTH SHOULD COMMENCE AT BIRTH AND CEASE ONLY AT DEATH" "I HAVE NO SPECIAL TALENT. I AM ONLY PASSIONATELY CURIOUS.........“
