“If you want to be good at something, really know it! Don't pretend that you know about it, but get to know it so that when you are tested, you can show your methods. Don't pretend, don't move to trends because the trends change. Follow your passion. Really follow your passion and get a lot of knowledge about it - more than anybody else, and become the person to go to. Then you will not be afraid to give your knowledge to other people because you will be moving forward.”

-Karim Farah
