Set exorbitant
standards, and give your people hell when they don't live up
to them. There is nothing so demoralizing as a boss who
tolerates second rate work.
-- David Ogilvy
1911-, American Businessman,
Advertising Expert
Don't waste
your time striving for perfection, instead, strive for
excellence -- doing your best.
-- Sir Lawrence Olivier
1907-1989, British Actor,
Producer, Director
People come
out to see you perform and you've got to give them the best
you have within you. The lives of most men are patchwork
quilts. Or at best one matching outfit with a closet and
laundry bag full of incongruous accumulations. A lifetime of
training for just ten seconds.
-- Jesse Owens
1913-1980, American Olympic
Track Athlete
Excellent
firms don't believe in excellence -- only in constant
improvement and constant change.
-- Thomas J. Peters
1942-, American Management
Consultant, Author, Trainer
