Successful people breed success.

Making a wrong decision is understandable. Refusing to search continually for learning is not.

Selecting the right person for the right job is the largest part of coaching.

Quality has to be caused, not controlled.

No one can remember more than three points.

We can spend our whole lives underachieving.

Quality is the result of a carefully constructed cultural environment. It has to be the fabric of the organization, not part of the fabric.

Being convinced one knows the whole story is the surest way to fail.

Very few of the great leaders ever get through their careers without failing, sometimes dramatically.

Slowness to change usually means fear of the new.

The audience only pays attention as long as you know where you are going.

Change should be a friend. It should happen by plan, not by accident.

A rule to live by: I won't use anything I can't explain in five minutes.

The great discoveries are usually obvious.

Successful people breed success.

You don't have to be noisy to be effective.

Eliminating what is not wanted or needed is profitable in itself.

You have to lead people gently toward what they already know is right.

In a true zero-defects approach, there are no unimportant items.

If anything is certain, it is that change is certain. The world we are planning for today will not exist in this form tomorrow.

It is always cheaper to do the job right the first time.

Quality management is needed because nothing is simple anymore, if indeed it ever was.

When you're out of quality, you're out of business.

There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.

Young people discovering their sexuality must know they walk with a strong tradition and that they are not alone. They have a right to information without being pressured.

DJs and people in the street know what they like.

People who keep stiff upper lips find that it's damn hard to smile.

Some people are directors and I think they should stay behind the camera.

We dominated Survivor - there is no way we would not dominate that, too. I can see it already, us making deals with people. That's the best part, and with the Race, it would be even more fun because I've got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

We must support initiatives that provide clear, concrete measures and milestones that our troops need for defeating the insurgency, building up Iraqi security forces, and handing over Iraq to the Iraqi people.

Yeah, that's what kind of, we get the idea a little bit yeah, because other people from different countries also try as hard as they can to get a medal or a gold medal in the Olympic Games. And you know, if they can work hard, we can work hard as well.

Well concerning the world records that I did, I think it helps a lot to me, yeah. I think it's a very individual thing because I heard some people say, like, oh I don't like it at all. But I definitely, for me it really made a big difference.

My goal is, of course, for this show to do well, and I would love it if people liked it.

I hate wasting people's time.

The people of England are the most enthusiastic in the world.

The avantgarde are people who don't exactly know where they want to go, but are the first to get there.

My theory is if you have a religion, it's a good one. Because some people don't have any at all.

It's sometimes shocking to find out what people really believe in.
