The essential element of successful strategy is that it derives its success from the differences between competitors with a consequent difference in their behavior. Ordinarily, this means that any corporate policy and plan which is typical of the industry is doomed to mediocrity. Where this is not so, it should be possible to demonstrate that all other competitors are at a distinct disadvantage.

Leon Jaworski

W. Somerset Maugham

David Frost


He's turned his life around. He used to be depressed and miserable. Now he's miserable and depressed.

Jean Cocteau


Art is science made clear.

Martin Luther King Jr., A Christmas Sermon for Peace on Dec 24, 1967


I�ve seen too much hate to want to hate, myself, and every time I see it, I say to myself, hate is too great a burden to bear. Somehow we must be able to stand up against our most bitter opponents and say:�We shall match your capacity to inflict suffering by our capacity to endure suffering. We will meet your physical force with soul force. Do to us what you will and we will still love you.... But be assured that we�ll wear you down by our capacity to suffer, and one day we will win our freedom. We will not only win freedom for ourselves; we will appeal to your heart and conscience that we will win you in the process, and our victory will be a double victory.

Henri-Frederic Amiel


To live we must conquer incessantly, we must have the courage to be happy.
