Anger is a rough water; if you can canalize it into a watermill, you can benefit from it. Anything bad can be transformed into good.
Really, anyone can learn how to fly. If you can drive a bus, you can fly an airplane.
A manager is a guide. He takes a group of people and says, 'With you I can make us a success; I can show you the way.'

Things never happen the way you plan. Take it a second at a time. Stay in the moment. It's the only way to control it. Your thoughts can paralyze you. They make you second-guess and that's when you lose. You mentally beat yourself. Believe you can ha...
You can feel anything. All is free for you to feel. But I guarantee you that if you allow yourself to feel envy and then to swim in it, that envy will destroy you and the people around you. Envy is unlike anger. Envy is not a right wing nor a left wi...
You see, the thing about working with pirates is that they know what they are doing. They already know more than you do because they are sailing and raiding. They are the experts in your organization, and you need to get them on your side, not turn t...
Doug Billings: All good with Melissa? Stu Price: Oh, yeah. Told her we're two hours outside of wine country, and she bought it. Phil Wenneck: Don't you think it's strange that you've been in a relationship for three years and you still have to lie ab...
Vincenzo Coccotti: Sicilians are great liars. The best in the world. I'm Sicilian. My father was the world heavy-weight champion of Sicilian liars. From growing up with him I learned the pantomime. There are seventeen different things a guy can do wh...
Molly Brown: [to the group who are dining at the same table] Hey, uh, who thought of the name Titanic? Was it you, Bruce? Ismay: Yes, actually. I wanted to convey sheer size, and size means stability, luxury, and above all, strength. Rose: Do you kno...

George: You know the great thing, though, is that change can be so constant you don't even feel the difference until there is one. It can be so slow that you don't even notice that your life is better or worse, until it is. Or it can just blow you aw...
I believe the better I can write on my own, the better I can be of service in a co-write. The big thing with a co-write is trust, and it's not so much what you get the first time you sit down with that writer. It's the relationship that you build tha...
If you can't see anything beautiful about yourself, get a better mirror. Look at little closer. Stare a little longer. Theres something inside of you that you may not see but others can. I can, we all can. Look back in the mirror, maybe you are right...

The tram can run over you only if you are on the tram way! The darkness can run over you only if you are on the ignorance way!
