More on Freedom
“Our single most important challenge is therefore to help establish a social order in which the freedom of the individual will truly mean the freedom of the individual.”
“We are a nation of politicians, concerned about the outmost defenses only of freedom. It is our children's children who may perchance be really free.”
“Freedom is not a gift received from the State or leader, but a possession to be won every day by the effort of each and the union of all.”
More on Negotiation
“It takes 150 years to build an investment bank and only five minutes to convince you to sell me preferred stock in it at a 10% interest rate.”
“No problem is so deep that it cannot be overcome, given the will of all parties, through discussion and negotiation rather than force and violence.”
“Adopt the attitude that everything is negotiable. A world of opportunity will greet you.”
