Thanks to the blogger at Winds of Change for posting this commencement speech by Conan O'Brien.
Here is some of the wisdom imparted to the Dartmouth graduates by O'Brien:
"It is our failure to become our perceived ideal that ultimately defines us and makes us unique. It's not easy, but if you accept your misfortune and handle it right, your perceived failure can become a catalyst for profound re-invention."
"Disappointment will come. The beauty is that through disappointment you can gain clarity, and with clarity comes conviction and true originality."
"Work hard, be kind, and amazing things will happen."

Right now I'm a bit more apprehensive. Work hard, be kind and expect to be screwed.
