Quotes about business:
"Return customers are a fundamental resource of any business."
~ Jan Verhoeff
"Productivity does not determine profitability, though profitability may actually be a direct result of
productivity."
~ Jan Verhoeff
"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly;
it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from
distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose
conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death."
~ Thomas Paine
Quotes about education:
"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude, to me is more important
than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes,
than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break
a company ...a church ...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace
for that day. We cannot change our past ...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.
We cannot change
the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude ...I am convinced that
life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you ...we are in charge of our attitudes."
~ Charles Swindoll
Quotes about music:
"I love the music of a storm. The rumble and roar and the steady drip of rain, or the thunderous
pouring."
~ Jan Verhoeff
"If I wrote music it would be like the storms - power and solitude disrupted by the clambour of laughter."
~ Jan Verhoeff
Quotes about writing:
"Writing is power. It is the ability to focus the readers energy on a philosophy of life so deep and
ingrained in the subject that the reader must choose NOT to believe."
~ Jan Verhoeff
"When something can be read without effort, great effort has gone into its writing."
~ Enrique Jardiel Poncela
