“I am a free man. I do not need to copy Petrarca or Boccaccio. My own genius is enough. Let others worry themselves about style, and so cease to be themselves. Without a master, without a model, without a guide, I go to work and earn my living, my well-being and my fame.” MenNeedsWellsEnoughMy OwnWorryStyleMastersGeniusFameModelsGuidesCeaseWell BeingCopiesFree Man Author:Pietro Aretino
“The free enterprise concept inherent in the economic model of capitalism should mean common people, or lower and middle class wage-earners, have greater potential to rise up and gain financial independence. In reality, however, free enterprise all too often leads to an almost total lack of government regulation that in turn allows the global elite to run amuck in Gordon Gecko-style financial coups.” PeopleShouldMeanRealityGovernmentRunningTurnsCommonClassGreaterEconomicMiddleStyleModelsConceptsCapitalismGainsIndependenceFinancialEnterpriseMiddle ClassElitesRegulationInherentFree EnterpriseCoupsGovernment RegulationFinancial IndependenceEconomic Models Author:James Morcan

“I don't really have a style icon but I really admire the way people dress like Gaga, Rihanna and Gwen Stefani.

“There's increasing consciousness that a "command and control" style of management which one associates with a male model isn't necessarily what works anymore, especially with small to medium sized companies. There's increasing evidence that a more flexible management style, where responsibility is distributed up and down the line, is what works best. And that kind of management style is one that will allow individual workers more flexibility - men and women.” MenKindIndividualLinesConsciousnessResponsibilityCompanyStyleModelsEvidenceMen And WomenManagementWorkersMalesCommandMediumsAssociatesFlexibilityFlexibleUp And DownCommand And Control Author:Betty Friedan
“Write what you want to read. So many people think they need to write a particular kind of book, or imitate a successful style, in order to be published. I've known people who felt they had to model their book on existing blockbusters, or write in a genre that's supposed to be "hot right now" in order to get agents and publishers interested. But if you're writing in a genre you don't like, or modeling yourself on a book you don't respect, it'll show through.

“I do preach the idea of individualism as in not adapting any kind of style or model other than that one of your own. I always found it strange in art history when studying about the different guilds and movements. It sounded too contrived and having to follow devised parameters to create art. I personally am not a team player in that manner. The art should be labeled by the artist's name only.” ShouldKindArtIdeasDifferentArtistFoundNamesStudyPlayerTeamStyleMovementStrangeModelsIndividualismAdaptingArt HistoryParametersTeam PlayerGuilds Author:Adamo Macri
“Adlai Stevenson, himself a notable speaker, often reminisced about his last meeting with Churchill. I asked him on whom or what he had based his oratorical style. Churchill replied, "It was an American statesman who inspired me and taught me how to use every note of the human voice like an organ." Winston then to my amazement started to quote long excerpts from Bourke Cockran's speeches of 60 years before. "He was my model," Churchill said. "I learned from him how to hold thousands in thrall."” YearsHumansLongSaidUseLastsVoiceStyleTaughtSpeechModelsMeetingsNotesInspiredOrgansSpeakersNotableStatesmenAmazementHuman Voice Author:William Bourke Cockran
“Whenever I wore it there were some questions whether the outfit was just too over the top. I'm like, "Do you know who you're dealing with here, and her eccentricities, her style, her flair?"

“As a businessman, Donald Trump has been associated with some of the worst excesses of a particular style of value-extracting and asset stripping capitalism: set up businesses, let them fail, avoid paying suppliers, use bankruptcy laws to avoid taxes for decades, then set up another business somewhere else.
