Dr. Zimbardo-

Good luck and best wishes during your retirement. I have been intrigued by your work since my first psychology class in high school. Your research is so intricate and offers a framework for many subjects of social psychology.

Best wishes!

I respect everything you've done for psychology and can only hope we can have another Zimbardo someday. Happy retirement, Dr. Z!

Hi Dr. Zimbardo,

I was introduced to this magical world of psychology through your introductory textbook. Enraptured by the wonders of the psychology discipline and the wonderfully laid out format and content, I decided to major in it...

Congratulations on your retirement. I'm sure you will continue to make an impact, and all the best! God bless you! =)

Dr. Zimbardo. Two things that strike me immediately on hearing your name: 1) You wrote the colourful Intro to Psyc textbook in the semester that I was doing it! (yonks and yonks of semesters ago). 2) Your prison experiment was so quirky that it even inspired a music record to be named after it! (Btw, although many ethical questions were asked about it, I always thought your study happened for a reason, like all things do.)

Anyways, may you have an excellent, excellent, excellent retirement from the world of APA format.

Best wishes,

Dear Professor Zimbardo,

I was introduced to psychology in my varsity from your 3rd edition introductory textbook called "Psychology." It was wonderfully written. In addition, I have watched several of your tapes and found you to be very charming and engaging a speaker. Good luck in all your future endeavours.

Hey Prof. Zimbardo,

Congrats on your retirement, and I'm sure all of humanity thanks you for your amazing contributions to the human race. I know I thank you for your insightful experiments, because without them we would be one step back in our social evolution.

Have an amazing life!

Congratulations on all the great work that you have done and on your retirement! Social psychology would certainly not be the same without you. You can most certainly sit back and relax knowing that you have profoundly affected the world.

I just want to say thanks for your contributions. I now work in academia but part of the influence for getting me there came from several of your books and especially the discovering psychology series. The series made psychology something understandable and real. Thanks again for your dedication.
