I’ve seen how the issues that come across a president’s desk are always the hard ones – the problems where no amount of data or numbers will get you to the right answer.
Michelle ObamaIf two smart, intelligent, clever guys sit together on a table, and you both want the same, where can be the problem? We all want to be successful.

Johann Wolfgang von GoetheSo confident am I in the intentions, as well as wisdom, of the government, that I shall always be satisfied that what is not done, either cannot, or ought not to be done.
Thomas JeffersonWords are more powerful than some noises. Noises won’t last long. Lyrics are so important, and people don’t realise that.
Billie EilishA lot of people have a sense-of-entitlement mentality that somebody else ought to do these things for them. People are mad at the government for not getting jobs for them. I don’t understand why it’s the government’s responsibility.
Wayne DyerDoing nothing while the middle class is hurting. That’s not leadership. Loose regulations and lax enforcement. That’s not leadership. That’s abandoning our middle class.
Kamala HarrisTo me, constructive criticism is when people take ownership of their ideas. That’s why I don’t listen to anything that’s anonymous. But it’s hard; when there’s something hurtful out there, I still want to read it over and over and memorize it and explain my point of view to the person.
Brene BrownWho you are speaks so loudly I can’t hear what you’re saying.
Ralph Waldo EmersonAdvertising works most effectively when it’s in line with what people are already trying to do. And people are trying to communicate in a certain way on Facebook – they share information with their friends, they learn about what their friends are doing – so there’s really a whole new opportunity for a new type of advertising model within that.
Mark ZuckerbergOur schools and colleges are turning out people who cannot feel fulfilled unless they are telling other people what to do.

DiogenesSurveys show our standing around the world is higher than when I was elected to this office, and when it comes to every important international issue, people of the world do not look to Beijing or Moscow to lead – they call us.
Barack ObamaWIth football you can have up to 28 guys you consider starters, and if they can pick up the slack when some aren’t playing so well, you don’t have to turn those two game losing streaks into six-game losing streaks.
Tom BradyTo restore the trust of the people, we must reform the way the government operates.

Jeff BezosThe only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation.
Bertrand RussellThere are definitely designers that I love, people I love to work with. And who they are as people matters. Are they good people? Do they treat their staff well? Do they treat my staff well? Are they young? Can I give them a boost? But when all of that is equal… is it cute?
Michelle ObamaAlways do everything you ask of those you command.
George S. PattonTrain up a child in the way that he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
King SolomonWe never fail when we try to do our duty, we always fail when we neglect to do it.
Robert Baden-PowellI’ve always regretted that I never was able to talk openly with my parents, especially with my father. I’ve heard and read so many things about my family that I can no longer believe anything; every relative I question has a completely different story from the last.
David BowieIf you’re talking to a man who wouldn’t fight with you under any circumstances whatsoever, then you’re talking to someone for whom you have absolutely no respect.

Theodore RooseveltNo one knows who is listening, say nothing you would not wish put in the newspapers.
Charles SpurgeonThe Internet is becoming the town square for the global village of tomorrow.
Bill GatesLeadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.
Colin PowellNever speak to an invalid from behind, nor from the door, nor from any distance from him, nor when he is doing anything. The official politeness of servants in these things is so grateful to invalids, that many prefer, without knowing why, having none but servants about them.
Florence NightingaleFor me every ruler is alien that defies public opinion.
Mahatma GandhiI’m no longer just a candidate. I’m the President. I know what it means to send young Americans into battle, for I have held in my arms the mothers and fathers of those who didn’t return. I’ve shared the pain of families who’ve lost their homes, and the frustration of workers who’ve lost their jobs.
Barack ObamaIt is a paradox that every dictator has climbed to power on the ladder of free speech. Immediately on attaining power each dictator has suppressed all free speech except his own.
Herbert HooverWe’ve persevered because of a belief we share with the Iraqi people – a belief that out of the ashes of war, a new beginning could be born in this cradle of civilization.

Barack ObamaThe world is weary of statesmen whom democracy has degraded into politicians.
Benjamin DisraeliIt doesn’t take a majority to make a rebellion; it takes only a few determined leaders and a sound cause.

Jimmy CarterThe temptation to take the easy road is always there. It is as easy as staying in bed in the morning and sleeping in. But discipline is paramount to ultimate success and victory for any leader and any team.
Jocko WillinkI have made this letter longer than usual, only because I have not had the time to make it shorter.
Blaise PascalYou better take care of me Lord, if you don’t you’re gonna have me on your hands.
Hunter S. ThompsonI won’t accept anything less than the best a player’s capable of doing… and he has the right to expect the best that I can do for him and the team!
Lou HoltzWorking with J Balvin has undoubtedly been an unparalleled experience.
