Quote by Lin Yutang

Of all the unhappy people in the world, the unhappiest are those who have not found something they want to do. True happiness comes to him who does his work well, followed by a relaxing and refreshing period of rest. True happiness comes from the right amount of work for the day.

Famous Quote by John F Kennedy

All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days, nor will it be finished in the first one thousand days, nor in the lifetime of this administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.

Tom Peters quote

"Excellent firms don't believe in excellence - only in constant improvement and constant change."

Tom Peters
