The great lesson is that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one's daily life, in one's neighbors, friends and family, in one's backyard.

You miss 100 percent of the shots you don't take.

If I find 10,000 ways something won’t work, I haven’t failed. I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is often a step forward.

How you climb a mountain is more important than reaching the top.

Make your team feel respected, empowered and genuinely excited about the company’s mission.

When you go to buy, don’t show your silver

In everything the ends well defined are the secret of durable success.

If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable.

Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome.

The only journey is the one within.

To win without risk is to triumph without glory

I treat business a bit like a computer game. I count money as points. I’m doing really well: making lots of money and lots of points.

In the modern world of business, it is useless to be a creative, original thinker unless you can also sell what you create.

Don't bunt. Aim out of the ballpark.

Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.

What is not started will never get finished

Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise.

The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.

Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.

If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.
