Red, the color of passion, activity, and energy. Red raises blood pressure and speeds up heart rate. A great choice to stir up excitement and to stimulate conversation and collaboration at your workplace. And it’s definitely all I need to have now at DITTO to enjoy another productive day.
I wish you all a happy, fruitful day!:)
And for even a happier kick-off, you might as well enjoy Africa by Toto.
“It’s ironic that at age 32, at probably the greatest moment of my career, with The Godfather having such an enormous success, I wasn’t even aware of it, because I was somewhere else under the deadline again.” Francis Ford Coppola

Music does bring people together.
It allows us to experience the same emotions. People everywhere are the same in heart and spirit. No matter what language we speak, what color we are, the form of our politics or the expression of our love and our faith, music proves: We are the same.

I am a product of my native land, Tuscany, Italy. Andrea Bocelli

Desire is the key to motivation, but it’s determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal – a commitment to excellence – that will enable you to attain the success you seek. Mario Andretti – Italian born American Race driver.
I love the language, that soft bastard Latin, which melts like kisses from a female mouth, and sounds as if it should be writ on satin with syllables which breathe of the sweet south. George Gordon Noel Byron
If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything. Confucius.
Let’s ditto Mark Amidon!

The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.
