General Quotes

“To be successful, however, you must be brutal with yourself and focus on the flaws.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger

“There is far too great a disproportion between what one is and what others think one is, or at least what they say they think one is.”
Albert Einstein

“Lead from the back and let others believe they are in front.” 
Nelson Mandela

“I think love, both kinds of love, which you remember Plato defines in his "Symposium" - both kinds of love serve a touchstone for men. Some men understand only the one, some only the other. Those who understand only the non-platonic love need not speak of tragedy. For such love there can be no tragedy. "Thank you kindly for the pleasure, good bye," and that's the whole tragedy. And for the platonic love there can be no tragedy either, because there everything is clear and pure.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Avoid the use of abusive words in communications that may switch off the attention of your mentor and your customers away.”

We'd rather they were ours and dead than yours and made immortal.”
C.S. Lewis

“It's fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.”

Leo Tolstoy

“Our schedules are so hectic we can’t get everything done, or else we are bored and restless, constantly looking for something to amuse us. We are the most frantic generation in history—and also the most entertained. The Bible tells us that both extremes are wrong.”
