You don’t need to come up with a game-changing solution to every problem. If you develop tunnel-vision on each and every hiccup, you will inevitably lose sight of the big picture and not be able to sustain your business. Those who think more in terms of turning a negative outcome into a positive potential have a much better chance of riding out the rough times.
Ziad K. Abdelnour -
I never want anything more than what's fair. The problem is, I never want anything less either. In the old-boy school of business, if a woman walks away from the table with what's rightfully hers, the man feels screwed.
Dolly Parton -
No problem is too small or too trivial if we can really do something about it.
Richard Feynman -

Michel Foucault -
The problem is not to find the answer, it's to face the answer
Terence McKenna -
The big problem in the long process of dumbing down the schools is that you can reach a point of no return. How are parents who never received a decent education themselves to recognize that their children are not getting a decent education?
Thomas Sowell -
Once you let yourself begin to be grown-up, you face a world full of problems you can't solve. The politicians and specialists - adults, all - have a hard enough time trying to figure out where to look. It doesn't have to be that way. The greatest solutions in society are reached by corporate thinking, ruled by a motive to either make a profit or go out of business.
Ray Bradbury -

You want to do something for the Lord...do it. Whatever you feel needs to be done, even though youre shaking in your boots, youre scared to death -- take the first step forward.

Women's interests are specialized, they're secondary; they're somewhere over to the side of the serious work that's being done. Throughout history, there have been ladies' magazines, ladies' journals, and for years there have been women writers who would refuse to participate in women-only sort projects because of that stigma.
Erin Belieu -
So if I don’t write as many letters as you do, don’t be upset. I’m not doing it to upset you, okay? This is my problem. I want other people to tell me how they feel. But I’m not so sure I want to return the favor.
Benjamin Alire Saenz -
There's a difference between maliciously offending somebody - on purpose - and somebody being offended by...truth. If you're offended by the truth, that's your problem. I have no obligation to not offend you if I'm speaking the truth. The truth is supposed to offend you; that's how you know you don't got it.
Brad Stine -
