There are big men, men of intellect, intellectual men, men of talent and men of action; but the great man is difficult to find, and it needs --apart from discernment --a certain greatness to find him.

I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

There are not enough days in forever to allow me to fully express the depth of my love for you.

Steve Maraboli

The sands are number'd that make up my life.

William Shakespeare

We were alone. Where, I could not say, hardly imagine. All was black, and such a dense black that, after some minutes, my eyes had not been able to discern even the faintest glimmer.

Jules Verne

Honest men are the soft easy cushions on which knaves repose and fatten.

Thomas Otway

A revised schedule is to business what a new season is to an athlete or a new canvas to an artist.

Norman Ralph Augustine

In the nineteenth century the problem was that God is dead. In the twentieth century the problem is that man is dead.

Erich Fromm

Poor workers! First they're cuckolded, and, as if that weren't enough, then they're beaten! Work's a curse, Saturno. I say to hell with the work you have to do to earn a living! That kind of work does us no honor; all it does is fill up the bellies of the pigs who exploit us. But the work you do because you like to do it, because you've heard the call, you've got a vocation --that's ennobling! We should all be able to work like that. Look at me, Saturno --I don't work. And I don't care if they hang me, I won't work! Yet I'm alive! I may live badly, but at least I don't have to work to do it!

Luis Bunuel

He was a manager, one of the singers, I guess talent coordinator for the local talent in Harlem. His name was Lover Patterson. He was living right across the street from where my dad had his restaurant. I guess he saw a lot of kids come in, a lot of my buddies.

Ben E. King

The art of leadership... consists in consolidating the attention of the people against a single adversary and taking care that nothing will split up that attention.

Adolf Hitler

At seventy-seven it is time to be in earnest.

Samuel Johnson

The creative destruction that social media is currently unleashing will change more than technology or the leader board of the Fortune 100. It is driving a qualitative shift in the nature of relationships between brands and their customers.
