When you’re older you want to learn from other people.
Ray BradburyI don’t know if high society is different in other cities, but in Hollywood, important people can’t stand to be invited someplace that isn’t full of other important people. They don’t mind a few unfamous people being present because they make good listeners.
Marilyn MonroeI know Gov. Christie. We’ve met a couple of times.
Dwayne JohnsonGreat teachers emanate out of knowledge, passion and compassion.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamI have surrounded myself with very smart people.

Isaac NewtonThe richest people in the world look for and build networks; everyone else looks for work.
Robert KiyosakiIn truth, I did enjoy the benefits of a Harvard connection.
Ruth Bader GinsburgAll that the future holds in store for each sacred child of God will be shaped by his or her parents, family, friends, and teachers. Thus, our faith now becomes part of our posterity’s faith later.
Russell M. NelsonI don’t know how to work a room. It’s a real skill.
Matthew McConaughey‚Educational‘ refers to the process, not the object. Although, come to think of it, some of my teachers could easily have been replaced by a cheeseburger.
Terry PratchettIf you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work.
Khalil GibranBeing flooded with information doesn’t mean we have the right information or that we’re in touch with the right people.
Bill GatesI would counsel people to go to college, because it’s one of the best times in your life in terms of who you meet and develop a broad set of intellectual skills.
Bill GatesThere are two kinds of teachers: the kind that fill you with so much quail shot that you can’t move, and the kind that just gives you a little prod behind and you jump to the skies.
Robert FrostI first met Bev Shea while in Chicago when he was on Moody Radio. As a young man starting my ministry, I asked Bev if he would join me. He said yes, and for over 60 years we had the privilege of ministering together across the country and around the world.

George WashingtonChance is an element of life. What I try to do is study what I call the mechanics of reality as carefully as I can.
Paul AusterFind a job you like and you add five days to every week.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.If you’re gonna make connections which are innovative… you have to not have the same bag of experiences as everyone else does.
Steve JobsI think the personal relationships I established mattered in terms of what I was able to get done. And I did bring women’s issues to the center of our foreign policy.
Madeleine AlbrightWe learned about gratitude and humility – that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean… and we were taught to value everyone’s contribution and treat everyone with respect.
Michelle ObamaOn a career level, I always advise people to look ahead and be open to changes in direction. That job that seems so good now can easily turn into a nightmare if you do not see the possible corners it can land you in.
Robert GreeneYou can’t be in politics unless you can walk in a room and know in a minute who’s for you and who’s against you.
Samuel JohnsonAny hand that I’ve shaken, any person that I met when I was Joe Blow, now that I’m this guy Kevin Hart, has come back. That’s why I treat everybody with respect. I’m always a nice pleasant guy to meet because when they come back to you, they remember.
Kevin HartWhen I checked into SEAL Team One many years ago, one of the things that I noticed was there was this old guy, who was younger than I am today, who I decided that I was going to be like. I wanted to emulate what he was doing, and one of those things was he got to work before anybody else.
Jocko WillinkUsing e-mail, I can communicate with scientists all over the world.
Stephen HawkingEvery bit of me is devoted to love and art. And I aspire to try to be a teacher to my young fans who feel just like I felt when I was younger. I just felt like a freak. I guess what I’m trying to say is I’m trying to liberate them, I want to free them of their fears and make them feel that they can make their own space in the world.
Lady GagaNo one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals.
Brian TracyOver the years, all my coaches and my teammates have contributed a lot to shape my career. I can never forget their contribution and help.
Sunil ChhetriI’m not a natural joiner.
J. K. RowlingI want people to follow their dreams, yes… but I’m not interested in telling young black kids how to be rappers… I want to show them that there’s so many other paths you can take, besides a rapper or basketball player.
J. ColeIt’s just hard to meet new people, in my position.
EminemResistance is usually ascribed to bodies at rest, and impulse to those in motion, but motion and rest, as commonly conceived, are only relatively distinguished; nor are those bodies always truly at rest, which commonly are taken to be so.
Isaac NewtonThis may sound a little bit idealistic, but when I go to my blog, my Facebook page, my Twitter account, I talk to different people from all over the world, and you see how it’s easy to establish a dialogue.
Paulo CoelhoHardly any human being is capable of pursuing two professions or two arts rightly.
PlatoYou can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.
Dr. SeussI vividly remember a conversation I had many years ago in 1974, which marked a turning point in my leadership journey. I was sitting at a Holiday Inn with my friend, Kurt Campmeyer, when he asked me if I had a personal growth plan. I didn’t. In fact, I didn’t even know you were supposed to have one.
John C. MaxwellA good objective of leadership is to help those who are doing poorly to do well and to help those who are doing well to do even better.
Jim RohnIt’d be stupid for me to sit here and say that there aren’t kids who look up to me, but my responsibility is not to them. I’m not a baby sitter.
EminemA friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.
John D. RockefellerIf all you’re doing is grinding for the man, it’s going to burden you. Once you say, ‚Hey, I’m grinding for the man, but I’m putting money away, and this is part of my exit strategy,‘ you’re working for you.
Jocko WillinkYour work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.
Steve JobsYou can close more business in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get people interested in you.
Dale CarnegieThe smarter the journalists are, the better off society is. For to a degree, people read the press to inform themselves – and the better the teacher, the better the student body.
Warren BuffettOur generation in the west was lucky: we had readymade gateways. We had books, paper, teachers, schools and libraries. But many in the world lack these luxuries. How do you practice without such tryout venues?
Margaret AtwoodThe best way a mentor can prepare another leader is to expose him or her to other great people.
John C. MaxwellQuite frankly, teachers are the only profession that teach our children.
Dan QuayleI was raised on, ‚You go get a nine-to-five job, earn your pay and work your way up.‘
Matthew McConaugheyTo share the dressing room of club and country with Bhai was an amazing experience. I learnt a lot from him and other senior players like Renedy Singh.
Sunil ChhetriThe ancients considered mechanics in a twofold respect: as rational, which proceeds accurately by demonstration, and practical. To practical mechanics all the manual arts belong, from which mechanics took its name.
Isaac NewtonI don’t need a successor, only willing hands to accept the torch for a new generation.
Billy GrahamWhen I talk to kids, I’m really listening. When I do that, we have a little bit of a bigger connection than me being Kendrick Lamar and you being a student. It’s almost like we’re friends. Because a friend listens.
Kendrick LamarI just want to be a great example to younger kids.
Kevin HartI ain’t here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way yall need Jesus.
Kanye WestWhy should I stop working? If I do, I’ll die and it’ll all be finished.
