Success is the sum of detail. It might perhaps be pleasing to imagine one's self beyond detail and engaged in only in great things. But, as I have often observed, if one attends only to great things and lets the little things pass, the great things become little - that is, the business shrinks.

The individual who is able to perceive a glimmer of possibility in a situation that seems, at first glance, full of insurmountable obstacles, is the one who is most likely to reap the greatest benefits.

If anything in the business is wrong, the fault is squarely with management.

I would rather earn 1% off 100 people's efforts than 100% of my own efforts.

When it rains, you put up an umbrella. That is the secret of success in business and management.

Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success.
