Change your practices without abandoning your core values.

The signature of mediocrity is not an unwillingness to change. The signature of mediocrity is inconsistency.

The only mistakes you can learn from are the ones you survive.

Whether you prevail or fail depends more on what you do to yourself than on what the world does to you.

Greatest danger is not failure, but be successful and not know why.

I've never found an important decision made by a great organization that was made at a point of unanimity. Significant decisions carry risks and inevitably some will oppose it. In these settings, the great legislative leader must be artful in handling uncomfortable decisions, and this requires rigor.

The drive for progress doesn't wait for the external world to say "It's time to change."
