A Covey of Quotations

Here are seven quotations, a few of which you may not have seen before.

1. “In order to have a conversation with someone, you have to reveal yourself.” James Baldwin

2. “Once we rid ourselves of traditional thinking we can get on with creating the future.” James Bertrand

3. “In a crisis, don’t hide behind anything or anybody. They’re going to find you anyway.” Paul (“Bear”) Bryant

4. “Progress is a nice word. But change is its motivator. And change has its enemies.”  Robert F. Kennedy

5. “If you’ve always done it that way, it’s probably wrong.” Charles Kettering

6. “People don’t resist change. They resist being changed.” Peter Senge

7. “Victory comes in finding opportunities in problems.” Sun Tzu

The best single source for quotations? I highly recommend The Yale Book of Quotations, edited by Fred R. Shapiro ad published by Yale University Press (2006). A new, updated edition will be published next month
