Back in June I posted a set of five quotations I saved from blogs & e-newsletters I subscribe to that feature quotes of the day as part of their presentations. Although these were random selections I received comments like "good ones" & "All quoted statements are great. I try to live what they say."
Below is a second set of five that I selected that is not random but establishes a theme.
1. "We have met the enemy & he is us." - Pogo, April 22, 1970
2. "Men at some time were masters of their fates: The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves. . ." - Cassius speaking to Brutus in Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar
3. "This city is what it is because our citizens are what they are." - Plato writing in The Republic
4. "Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected." - Steve Jobs
5. "You take people as far as they will go, not as far as you would like them to go." Jeannette Rankin
Hi Doug,
ReplyDeleteQuotes are always fun to read…One could easily substitute Steve Jobs name, in number four, with Donald Trump. Very successful people think the same
Great quotes.
