"To date I've had 5 careers.
Each career morphed into the other.
And each was built on five elements:
An idea out of the blue;
A child's basic understanding of law: "Ma, it aint fair";
A madness to create something I knew nothing
A compulsion to realize the idea;
And underneath the compulsion.
... Terror!
To paraphrase Ed Catmull, head of Disney-Pixar, in his book Creativity Inc.:
'It's like pummeling at 90 miles an hour in a dark tunnel, holding on for dear life, and praying there is light at the end of the tunnel.'"
It was this terror underlying my interview with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of Canada .
