“The great difference between the recognized man and the respected man is the difference of head and heart. The recognized man appeals to the head where things are easily forgotten. The respected man captivates the heart. And the heart does not forget.”

“Respect reverberates and multiplies. Recognition explodes and subsides.”

“The wise man seeks first and foremost to use his good fortune to increase the number of those with whom he collaborates.”

“The one who lacks a generous purpose cares primarily for recognition. The on with a generous purpose cares primarily for respect.”

“Great opportunities are rare only to those that cannot see them.”

“Those that earn serendipity see what others don't, do what others won't and keep pushing when prudence says quit.”

“The one who consistently earns serendipity is the who cares little for convenience.”
