“There's still a decent chance to get the deal through. I'd peg it at 50-50.”
David Kestenbaum
“If a square peg doesn’t fit a round hole, neither the peg nor the hole is to blame. Between two people, the question "whose fault is it?" is the friend of argumentation and the destroyer of growth-oriented communication. Assigning blame involves listening to criticize and responding to defend, speaking to lower the other person rather than speaking to build each up. Relational progress is impossible as long as blame is the focus because blame and progress are enemies. In our litigation-hungry society we must take care that focusing on fault - which is proper for the courtroom - doesn’t carry over into interpersonal relationships. The heart of loving communication is listening to understand.”
Jeffrey Bryant
“You can't fit a round peg in a square hole”
American Proverb
“My foot peg just clipped him a bit. I'm not worried about his car - it was like, I was a foot peg away from death. But all's well that ends well. I'm still alive”
Ryan Reynolds
“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
Steve Jobs
“We need to peg Australia back and get a couple of quick wickets early on and take it from there.”
