Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you again what you are to presume. I am the judge. I am telling you that. Presume he is innocent. When you sit there, I want you to look and say to yourself, There sits an innocent man.

INNOVATION is the specific tool of entrepreneurs, the means by which they exploit change as an opportunity for a different business or a different service. It is capable of being presented as a discipline, capable of being learned, capable of being practiced. Entrepreneurs need to search purposefully for the sources of innovation, the changes and their symptoms that indicate opportunities for successful innovation. And they need to know and to apply the principles of successful innovation.

Antoine De SaintExupery, Flight

We're more popular than Jesus Christ now. I don't know which will go first; rock and roll or Christianity.

John Lennon

In politics, what begins in fear usually ends in failure.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

The heart which finds life in material wealth is usually certain to go farther and seek for more in the satisfaction of base and sullen appetites.
