"Nothing important was ever accomplished without chutzpah. Columbus……" — Alan Alda
"Nothing important was ever accomplished without chutzpah. Columbus had chutzpah. The signers of the Declaration of Independence had chutzpah. Don't ever aim doubt at yourself. Laugh at yourself, but don't doubt yourself."
