Success and Failure
Watch for big problems; they disguise big opportunities. [Select] Weiler's Law: Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it himself. [Select] Wethern's Law: Assumption is the mother of all screw-ups. [Select] When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other. [Select] While anyone can admit to themselves they were wrong, the true test is admission to someone else. [Select] You are not what you think you are, you are not what they think you are, but you could be what you think they think you are. [Select] You can't carve your way to success without cutting remarks. [Select] You cannot achieve the impossible without attempting the absurd. [Select] You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore. [Select] You cannot produce a baby in one month by impregnating nine women. [Select] You should emulate your heroes, but don't carry it too far. Especially if they are dead. [Select] You're a genius if you fly a kite during a thunderstorm, and discover that lightning is electricity -- but you're an idiot if you fly a kite during a thunderstorm, and discover that lightning can kill you. [Select] Unknown (from Mad Magazine) The wind and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators. [Select] He is the best sailor who can steer within fewest points of the wind, and exact a motive power of the greatest obstacle. [Select] The biggest things are always the easiest to do because there is no competition. [Select] Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly. [Select] The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck. [Select] There's nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all. [Select] Just because you've been wiping your ass for twenty years, that doesn't mean you've been doing it right. [Select] John Winsett (said at a training seminar) {Also in: Wisdom and Ignorance} I must catch up with the others, for I am their leader. [Select]
