  • Four out of five new business fail
  • The world belongs to the discontented. 
  • Of course, the way forward will always generate some failures. Failures are inevitable
  • It's a rare person who wants to hear what he doesn't want to hear - Dick Cavett.

  • A desk is a dangerous place from which to view the world - John le Carre
  • Success is more permanent when you achieve it without destroying your principles.
