“I learned early that business is business and politics is politics. The proof is how few important businessmen have made good politicians. They may think that they are very smart about everything because they made millions of dollars by digging a hole in the ground and finding oil, but the talent and luck needed to become rich are not the same talent and luck needed to succeed on Parliament Hill.” ThinkingMayMadeImportantMillionsRichTalentNeededPoliticianSucceedFindingsSmartLuckDollarsOilProofHolesHillsBusinessmanParliamentDiggingVery SmartBecome RichGood PoliticiansDigging A Hole Author:Jean Chretien
