When those with ability at their job get to thinking they can't be done without, they're already on their way out.

Hoarding one's hurts hurts only the hoarder.

It's great to arrive, but the trip's most always most of the fun.

It's so much easier to suggest solutions when you don't know too much about the problem.

Some of the biggest bores I've ever known are men who have been highly successful in business, particularly self-made heads of big companies. Before the first olive has settled into the first martini, they pour the stories of their lives into the nearest and sometimes the remotest ears capturable.... These men have indeed paid the price of success. To rise to the top of a big company often takes a totality of effort, concentration and dedication. Others, too, have to pay part of the price. Wife and children are out of mind even when in sight.
