Warren BuffettBut for me to have the opportunity to stand in front of a bunch of executives and present myself, I had to hustle in my own way. I can’t tell you how frustrating it was that they didn’t get that. No joke – I’d leave meetings crying all the time.
Kanye WestBeware the barrenness of a busy life.

Amy WinehouseThere has to be something in every role that interests you.
Clint EastwoodFor a long time, I had the idea that I would do a certain amount of work the best I could, and then I would reach a comfort zone, and I wouldn’t be pushed to write more. I would become a different person. It’s a surprise to me that this hasn’t happened. Your body ages, but your mind is the same.

Jerry SeinfeldQuite frankly, teachers are the only profession that teach our children.
Dan QuayleIn my father’s generation, the product was 80 percent of what you were putting into the world, and your personal life was 20 percent. It now seems that 80 percent of the product I put out is silly, made-up stories and what I’m wearing.

Napoleon HillI don’t know what’s the matter with people: they don’t learn by understanding; they learn by some other way – by rote, or something. Their knowledge is so fragile!
Richard P. FeynmanOne thing that I find very unmotivating is the kind of Plan B argument: when Earth gets destroyed, you want to be somewhere else. That doesn’t work for me. We have sent robotic probes now to every place in the solar system, and this is the best one.
Jeff BezosIf a man constantly aspires is he not elevated?

Friedrich NietzscheNever interrupt someone doing what you said couldn’t be done.

Anne FrankYes, sir, no, sir, clock in, clock out. Why were you late? Why are you not in today? That’s not how humans are supposed to live.

Edmund HillaryIt is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
