Uri GellerI don't want my company to get incredibly large, nor can I be responsible for masses of people, nor do all those good dancers necessarily want to work for me, for a long period of time anyway.
Siobhan DaviesA lawyer without history or literature is a mechanic, a mere working mason; if he possesses some knowledge of these, he may venture to call himself an architect.
Sir Walter ScottWe have one country, one constitution and one future... When we come together and work together, there is no limit to the greatness of America.

Rainer Maria RilkeHaving lived in China for 4 years, working as an HR manager in a Chinese company,

Dr. Romie F. LittrellIf you don't deliver, you don't earn the flexibility [on work-life balance]

May B SmithThere is no doubt in my mind that random groups of people thrown together in unstructured networks can outperform any aggregrated homogeneous corporation.
Thomas PowerIt's a huge move for me to be going solo, but I'm looking forward to the challenge. It's also quite nerve-racking having been surrounded by six friends for four years, but I love the new single and other material I've been working on and we're all very supportive of each other.
