Very Last Lecture of a Dying Professor

This is an inspirational video about a professor with terminal cancer.

Randy Pausch, a Computer Science Professor at Carnegie-Mellon University who was suffering from Pancreatic Cancer and died just weeks after giving his “last Lecture.”

There are several gems in this video like:

"Experience is what you get when you can't get what you what in life". This is absolutely true.

The other quote he said was, “Brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls aren’t there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to show us how badly we want things…the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough!”. A lot of people will just give up when they try to achieve something and yet is they push themselves just a bit further, you can overcome the obstacle.
