Once
to every person and nation come the moment to
decide. In the conflict of truth with falsehood, for
the good or evil side.
-- James Russell
Lowell
1819-1891, American
Poet, Critic, Editor
In
making our decisions, we must use the brains that
God has given us. But we must also use our hearts
which He also gave us. A man who has not learned to
say, ''No'' --who is not resolved that he will take
God's way, in spite of every dog that can bay or
bark at him, in spite of every silvery choice that
woos him aside--will be a weak and a wretched man
till he dies.
-- Alexander Maclaren
1826-1910, British
Preacher
Decide
promptly, but never give any reasons. Your decisions
may be right, but your reasons are sure to be wrong.
-- Lord Mansfield
1867-1915, British
Artist, Author
Be
willing to make decisions. That's the most important
quality in a good leader. Don't fall victim to what
I call the Ready- Aim-Aim-Aim Syndrome. You must be
willing to fire.
-- T. Boone Pickens
American Businessman,
Chairman of Mesa Petroleum
