Work hard. Tell everyone everything you know. Close a deal with a handshake. Have fun!

Harold Edgerton was a remarkable MIT professor. He used stroboscopes to make incredible high speed photographs, which even today are breathtaking.


His motto was brilliant;


Work hard. Tell everyone everything you know. Close a deal with a handshake. Have fun!
