Fortune does not so much change men, as it unmasks them.

The boss drives people; the leader coaches them. The boss depends on authority; the leader on good will. The boss inspires fear; the leader inspires enthusiasm. The boss says I; The leader says WE. The boss fixes the blame for the breakdown; the leader fixes the breakdown. The boss says, GO; the leader says lets, GO!

H. Gordon Selfridge

I told you I'm not going to criticize my successor. I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind.

George W. Bush

You remember all those phrases about how these people - Asians - don't value human life like we do. Well if you spend any time around them, you discover that they love their children just as much as we love ours. That is certainly true of the Vietnamese.

Neil Sheehan

Some friends play at friendship, but a true friend sticks closer than one's nearest kin. Proverbs 18:24

Bible

A claim for equality of material position can be met only by a government with totalitarian powers.

Friedrich August von Hayek

When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.

Marc Chagall

The world is not growing worse and it is not growing better -- it is just turning around as usual.

Finley Peter Dunne

I'm going to be in technology for a long time.

Eric Lefkofsky

If I seem to boast more than is becoming, my excuse is that I brag for humanity rather than for myself.

Henry David Thoreau

Wherever there is danger, there lurks opportunity; whenever there is opportunity, there lurks danger. The two are inseparable. They go together.

Earl Nightingale

If you want to be happy for a year, plant a garden; If you want to be happy for life, plant a tree.

English Proverb

A person's worth in this world is estimated according to the value they put on themselves.

Jean de la Bruyere
