""Instead of Generation X and Generation Y, I think this is Generation ‘Oh yeah? Is that right?’ because the naïve aspects have worn away. That’s not being nihilistic or jaded—that’s experience and understanding. It’s the casual calmness of understanding that bullshit—while totally usable at your discretion—is a waste of time. If you’d like to get to the meat portion, you can go ahead and jump in there and that’d be fine.”
"

"I’ve always felt that a manager has achieved a great deal when he’s able to motivate one other person. When it comes to making the place run, motivation is everything. You might be able to do the work of two people, but you can’t be two people. Instead, you have to inspire the next guy down the line and get him to inspire his people."
