notable commencement speeches
2008 June 29
delayed blogging about this, but i think its worthy to highlight Graham’s commencement speech. as others have.
its pretty funny, especially when he said “Britney Spears once said…” he’s obviously extremely popular among the crowd and his class, exuding his charisma on stage, drawing cheers, laughs, and applause all round.
I am seconding Dr Vijay’s opinion that its Stanford that yields great commencement speeches. the other favourite all time was Steve Jobs’ address and the famous tag line “stay foolish, stay hungry”
Full text of this inspiring speech of his personal life story and the story of Apple’s success can be found here.
