Robert De Niro gave a colorful commencement address to the graduates
of NYU Tisch School of the Arts and, among noteworthy phrases, he told
the graduates that they were "opening a door to a lifetime of
rejection".
The NY Daily News has an article on his speech as well as on his use
of f-bombs; see:
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/robert-de-niro-harsh-advice-nyu-art-school-grads-article-1.2232322
The YouTube has video of his presentation and there's really nothing
like having Robert De Niro telling you that you are F'ed; see:

Note #1: Shortly before the end of the video is a 15 second ad (mine
was for Behr paint, YMMV; gotta make that profit).
Note #2: De Niro also has a few words about teachers which I'm sure
Louis Schmier will appreciate. ;-)
Now go back to school and major in accounting. ;-)

P.S. If anyone is offended by De Niro's use of the f-bomb, I think
that phrase used in the movie "Argo" is appropriate: "Argo....." ;-)
