"Wait for them to become decadent and lazy." (Speaking of when is your enemy most vulnerable)

The most important things in life . . . aren't things at all.

If you don't have time to do something right, when are you going to find the time to fix it?

I will prepare, and some day my chance will come.

It is easier to come up with a new idea than to let go of the old ones.

A desk is a dangerous place from which to view the world.

The future is not some place we are going to but one we are creating. The paths to it are not found but made.

Doubt, of whatever kind, can be ended by action alone.

You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage them. The good ones keep grinding it out.

Perpetual optimism is a force multiplier.

"A good friend never gets in your way unless you are going down"

"Pick battles big enough to matter, small enough to win."

I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather....Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car...

"The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials."

"Remember, No decision IS a decision . . . to do nothing."

"It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste."

"Successful people do the things that unsuccessful people are unwilling to do."

Wouldn't it be cool if we actually aligned our operating budgets with our strategic plans?.

A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have.

Optimism is essential to achievement and it is also the foundation of courage and of true progress.

Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.

"There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure."

Don't measure success by how high one climbs but rather, how high one bounces when they hit bottom.

Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.

Most people add a page to their book of life as each day passes. Wise ones simply live out what they have written.

We cannot hold a torch to light another persons path without brightening our own.

"It's easier to move from failure to success than from excuses to success. Great leaders don't make excuses."

"All you have to do is know where you're going. The answers will come to you of their own accord."

"Management is doing things right; Leadership is doing the right things.

Too many people spend money they don't have to buy things they don't need to impress people they don't like.

Today's doubts define the only limit to realizing tomorrow's dreams.

Time is the scarcest resource and unless it is managed nothing else can be managed.
