Elon Musk
Elon Musk is, without a doubt, one of today’s most awesome characters. Always controversial to the point you can only love or hate him. For this image I have used the words of one of his best quotes “I think it is possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary.”

It ain’t about how hard you hit
This is one of those inspirational quotes you keep in memory, this time from a non-real character but I think it’s a great quote. From Rocky Balboa talking to his son:
“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place. And I don’t care how tough you are. It will beat you to your knees and keep you permanently there if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life, but it ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done”

Srinivasa Ramanujan
He is one of the most amazing minds ever and one of my favourite characters, Srinivasa Ramanujan. Probably because he is one of these isolated autodidacts that probe the wonder of human mind. He died very young and we have only a couple photos of himself, I choose one of these for this illustration… I feel we can see many things through that eyes.
We have a lot of results from him, near 3900, but not too many words. I love one of his quotes “An equation has no meaning for me unless it expresses a thought of God”. I took this one and spread over his portrait.
You can read about Srinivasa Ramanujan in his wikipedia article.

Winston Churchill
Winston Churchill has exceptional quotes. But I like the most one quite simple that summarizes the personality of this brilliant man: “Never, never, never give up”.
I spread the quote over his portrait.
In this second illustration I used a different quote: “Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm”. Totally agree!.
