“Regarding the idea of race, .. no agreement seems to exist about what race means. Race seems to embody a fact as simple and as obvious as the noonday sun, but if that is so, why the endless wrangling about the idea and the facts of race. What is a race? How can it be recognized? Who constitute the several races?.” IfsMeanIdeasFactsSeemsSimpleRaceSunObviousEndlessAgreementWrangling Author:Jacques Barzun

“All of the great leaders down through history have told us we become what we think about. In fact, they have been in complete and unanimous agreement on this point while they disagree on almost every other point. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people rarely think, they simply accept what they see or hear. The next time someone gives you a suggestion, rather than simply accepting and acting on the suggestion - THINK - exercise your reasoning factor. Ask yourself if the suggestion will improve the quality of your life.” PeopleIfsThinkingGivingHas BeensFactsNextAsksActingQualityLeaderAcceptingExerciseMajorityFactorsReasoningAgreementDisagreeNext TimeSuggestionsGreat Leader Author:Bob Proctor
