I'm drawn to a lovely quote by St. Augustine in "The City of God," where he says, "It's a sin to judge any man by his post." In modern English that would mean it's a sinto come to any view of who you should talk to, dependent on their business card. It's not the post that should count. According to St. Augustine, only God can really put everybody in their place; he's going to do that on the Day of Judgment, with angels and trumpets, and the skies will open. Insane idea, if you're a secularist person, like me. But something very valuable in that idea, nevertheless.

All violence consists in some people forcing others, under threat of suffering or death, to do what they do not want to do.

创新不仅仅是关于新的想法，而是关于有效地执行它们。

在荒野中，你学会欣赏小事。它们往往会产生最大的影响。

"The present is always an unstable place, the past is where you anchor yourself."

领导力意味着今天做出艰难的决定，这些决定将使公司明天受益。
