“It is your people who make the ultimate difference. You put the investment into training the people and then, when you get invited to the party with the big boys, that is a unique selling point.”
Phil Dixon
“When you live with another person for 50 years, all of your memories are invested in that person, like a bank account of shared memories. It’s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, “Do you remember that night we...?” But you don’t have to. That is the best of all. You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives. It is better than any scrapbook, because you are both living scrapbooks.”
Federico Fellini
“I am not invested with dictatorial powers. If I were, I should be quite ready to dictate.”
Winston Churchill
“The best investment is in the tools of one's own trade.”
Benjamin Franklin
