“In New Haven, Conn., when I was growing up, there were two sorts of Irish. There were the "drugstore cowboy" micks, who hung around the Elm Street poolroom over Longley's Lunch. And there were the earnest young Irishmen who fought their way up from the Grand Avenue saloonkeeper backgrounds of their fathers, went through Yale Law School, and have now found high place by the preferment of local politics or in the teaching profession.” WayTwoBookSchoolLawYoungFoundFatherGrowing UpGrowingStreetsTeachingHavensProfessionBackgroundsLocalsLunchHungCowboyEarnestAvenuesLaw SchoolYaleHigh PlacesIrishmenTeaching Profession Book:Studs Lonigan Source: Studs Lonigan
“I grew up in a remarkable home, the middle of seven children. My parents raised us well. They loved us well. We laughed hard growing up. But being the middle child, I couldn't figure out where I fit in the home, whether I was the youngest of the older three or the oldest of the younger three. When you don't know where you fit inside the home and you're young and you're desperate to fit in somewhere, I'd figured where I would fit outside the home. So I made some bad decisions about who I hung out with, I dropped out of high school, got kicked out of the house.” KnowsWellsChildrenMadeHardHomeSchoolYoungThreeHouseParentDecisionGrowing UpGrowingMiddleFiguresGrewFitGrew UpHigh SchoolRaisedSevenDesperateRemarkableLaughedHungBad DecisionMiddle Child Author:Tullian Tchividjian
“I run my company according to feminine principles, principles of caring, making intuitive decisions, not getting hung up on hierarchy or all those dreadfully boring business-school management ideas; having a sense of work as being part of your life, not separate from it; putting your labor where your love is; being responsible to the world in how you use your profits; recognizing the bottom line should stay at the bottom.” WorldShouldIdeasUseRunningSchoolLinesDecisionLove IsBusinessCompanyPrinciplesLaborResponsibleManagementBottomProfitBoringCaringFeminineHungRecognizingIntuitiveHierarchyBottom LineBeing ResponsibleBusiness School Author:Anita Roddick
