“History nowadays is not a matter of conviction.It’s a performance. It’s entertainment. And if it isn’t, make it so.”
“It’s true, isn’t it? Then what else really matters?”
“History isn’t something you study. It’s something you should just know.”
“Management controls performance in people because it impacts skills; it’s a matter of monitoring, analyzing and directing.”
“Leadership creates performance in people because it impacts willingness; it’s a matter of modeling, inspiring, and reinforcing.”
“Mind you, it’s all bullshit with wine, isn’t it? It’s just f**king vinegar with a fizz, no matter what the tasters say.”
