Quote by Mark Shaiken

“It’s time for me to come to grips with who I am and who I’m not at this point in my life. Those two change as we get older. Time to figure out what I know and what I don’t. Those also change. The practice of law interferes with those determinations sometimes.”

Anything that I’m not seeing through my lens fades away in the background. And I get to frame my picture any way I choose. I get to dictate how it looks. What’s in it. What isn’t. Behind that lens I have complete control in how things are seen.” He smiled, his dimples indenting his cheeks. “You get it.”
