Great
(page 17)
To stay a great singer or guitar player, you've got to do it 24/7. That's what I do.
You can't build a great building on a weak foundation. You must have a solid foundation if you're going to have a strong superstructure.
Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them.
I love a man with a great sense of humor and who is intelligent — a man who has a great smile. He has to make me laugh. I like a man who is very ambitious and driven and who has a good heart and makes me feel safe. I like a man who is very strong and independent and confident — that is very sexy — but at the same time, he's very kind to people.
An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language.
I was given such a great gift. It's a miracle that never stops amazing me and reminding me to give thanks, every day. Having a wife and daughter gives me a lot more purpose. I was much more selfish before, but now I think about what kind of role model I'll be. I just want to be a better man.
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
Being rich and famous has never been my goal at all. I love to act and I want to be able to do really great parts.
First, accept sadness. Realize that without losing, winning isn't so great.
Surround yourself with great people. People are what make businesses prosper.
Life seeks life and loves life. The opening of a catkin of a willow, in the flight of the butterfly, in the chirping of a tree-toad or the sweep of an eagle — my life loves to see how others live, exults in their joy, and so far is partner in their great concern.
Education is not solely about earning a great living. It means living a great life.
Great things in business are never done by one person. They're done by a team of people.
I've learned that fear limits you and your vision. It serves as blinders to what may be just a few steps down the road for you. The journey is valuable, but believing in your talents, your abilities, and your self-worth can empower you to walk down an even brighter path. Transforming fear into freedom — how great is that?
Leave your ego at the door every morning, and just do some truly great work. Few things will make you feel better than a job brilliantly done.
I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.
It is time to remember that old wisdom our soldiers will never forget: that whether we are black or brown or white, we all bleed the same red blood of patriots, we all enjoy the same glorious freedoms, and we all salute the same great American Flag.
It's sad to know I'm done. But looking back, I've got a lot of great memories.
The difference between something good and something great is attention to detail.
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
