Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not
those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.

Perfect beauty implies perfect simplicity, a quality that at first sight does not arouse the emotions

Eugène Delacroix
To my mind, a man must choose a wife for himself, without advice from anybody. As I said to Tony before he ever proposed to
this girl: Make sure that she's good, and a lady, and healthy, and intelligent, and that she's going to get on with your friends and
relations, and you with hers - and then, my dear boy, if you feel that you can afford to marry - then I suppose there's no help for it.
E. M. Delafield
I believe that you have to understand the economics of a business before you have a strategy, and you have to
understand your strategy before you have a structure. If you get these in the wrong order, you will probably fail.
Michael Dell
Ideas are a commodity. Execution of them is not.
Michael Dell
If you limit a company by its structure or by the people in the company, you will, by definition, limit the full potential of
that business. It sounds basic, but a lot of companies don't follow the idea that the structure should be last and not first.
Michael Dell
It's fun to do things that people don't think are possible or likely.

We're fast approaching the point at which there is really no distinction between the .com companies and traditional businesses. The

Here's the rule for bargains: Do other men, for they would do you.
That's the true business precept.
Charles Dickens
The persons on whom I have bestowed my dearest love, lie deep in their graves; but, although the happiness and delight of my life lie buried there
too, I have not made a coffin of my heart, and sealed it up, for ever, on my best affections. Deep affliction has but strengthened and refined them.
Charles Dickens
You are a human boy, my young friend.
A human boy. O glorious to be a human boy! ...
O running stream of sparkling joy
To be a soaring human boy!
Charles Dickens
You could draw me to fire, you could draw me to water, you could draw me to the gallows, you could draw me to any death, you could draw me to anything I
have most avoided, you could draw me to any exposure and disgrace. This and the confusion of my thoughts, so that I am fit for nothing, is what I mean by your
being the ruin of me. But if you would return a favourable answer to my offer of marriage, you could draw me to any good - every good - with equal force.
Charles Dickens
I must go in, the fog is rising.
Emily Dickinson
If I can stop one heart from breaking,

Bette Midler
A Father's Day would call attention to such constructive teachings from the pulpit as would naturally point out: The father's
place in the home. The training of children. The safeguarding of the marriage tie. The protection of womanhood and childhood. The
meaning of this, whether in the light of religion or of patriotism is so apparent as to need no argument in behalf of such a day.

A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize the truth, either

Decisions of the kind the executive has to make are not made well by acclamation. They are made well only if based on the clash

Most of what we call management consists of making it difficult for people to get their work done.

The most common cause of executive failure is inability or unwillingness to change with the demands of a new

Passage of a meaningful equal pay bill will end a long and unfortunate pattern of discrimination against women and it will place the
Federal Government in the same desirable position as the 20 states which have enacted equal pay laws. It will help all areas of the economy, men as
well as women, by stabilizing wage rates, increasing job security, and discouraging the replacement of men with women at lower rates of pay.
Florence P. Dwyer
There are many kinds of love, as many kinds of light,
And every kind of love makes a glory in the night.
There is love that stirs the heart, and love that gives it rest,
But the love that leads life upward is the noblest and the best.

Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those

Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls in the air. You name them - work, family, health, friends, and spirit -
and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But
the other four balls - family, health, friends, and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed,
marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.
