Here are a few of my favs...
"The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds." (R.D. Laing)
"The surest way to reveal one's character is not through adversity but by giving them power." (Abraham Lincoln)
"So much of what we call management consists of making it difficult for people to work." (Peter Drucker)
"When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bounds. Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world." (the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali)
lessons are repeated until they are learned
And Norman Swartzkopf (spelling) said something like this when asked during the Gulf War if he thought he was playing God by judging. He said "Our job isn't to judge; that's God's job. Our job is just to arrange the meeting."
