Listening can make the difference between a mediocre organization and a great one.

In the old days, if a neighbors apples fell into your yard, you worked it out over the back fence or picked them up and made pies. Today, you sue.

If you want to make good use of your time, you've got to know what's most important and then give it all you've got.

What is it that you like doing? If you don't like it, get out of it, because you'll be lousy at it.

In the great undertakings, there is glory, even in failure.

A little righteous anger really brings out the best in the American personality. Our nation was born when 56 patriots got mad enough to sign the Declaration of Independence. We put a man on the moon because Sputnik made us mad at being number two in space. Getting mad in a constructive way is good for the soul- and the country.

Life can be difficult for kids born with a gold spoon in their mouth, because they never really get to find out if they're able to work hard and make it on their own.
