“If you want things to change, you must change. If you want things to get better, you must get better.”

“I cannot say whether things will get better if we change; what I can say is that they must change if they are to get better.”

“Right now, your company gets the results—good or bad—that it was designed to get. If your vision of the future differs from your current situation, if you want to get better results, then you must change the way you do things. If you don’t, how can you expect results that are any different from what you’ve already achieved?”

“If you want to get warm you must stand near the fire: if you want to be wet you must get into the water. If you want joy, power, peace, eternal life, you must get close to, or even into, the thing that has them.”

“Things don’t get better just because you want them to.”

“If you want to change the fruits, you will first have to change the roots. If you want to change the visible, you must first change the invisible.”
