The budget evolved from a management tool into an obstacle to management.

Frank C. Carlucci

I am a night painter, so when I come into the studio the next morning the delirium is over.

Philip Guston

In addition to self-awareness, imagination and conscience, it is the fourth human endowment-independent will-that really makes effective self-management possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in accordance with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to proactively carry out the program we have developed through the other three endowments. Empowerment comes from learning how to use this great endowment in the decisions we make every day.

Stephen Covey

Ronald Reagan

The more people explore the world, the more they realize in every country there's a different aesthetic. Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.

Helena Christensen

Freedom of enterprise was from the beginning not altogether a blessing. As the liberty to work or to starve, it spelled toil, insecurity, and fear for the vast majority of the population.

Herbert Marcuse

The media has become more forceful, has begun to recognize its traditional historic role and act on it, and truth is infectious.

Ron Suskind

Here is the tragedy: when you are the victim of depression, not only do you feel utterly helpless and abandoned by the world, you also know that very few people can understand, or even begin to believe, that life can be this painful. There is nothing I can think of that is quite as isolating as this.

Giles Andreae

The Great Depression, like most other periods of severe unemployment, was produced by government mismanagement rather than by any inherent instability of the private economy.

Milton Friedman

As a member of the House Select Committee on Intelligence, I will be participating in several hearings on the startling revelations contained in the report.
