A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.
The toughest thing about the power of trust is that it's very difficult to build and very easy to destroy. The essence of trust building is to emphasize the similarities between you and the customer.
We're teaching our kids that attributes as vague and relatively meaningless as a toothy smile or a fine head of hair make a fine statement about a person.
Baseball is only a game, a game of inches and a lot of luck. During a time of all-out war, sports are very insignificant.
If I had to name the number one asset you could have for any sport I'd say speed. In baseball, all a guy with speed has to do is make contact.
