“Visionary decision-making happens at the intersection of intuition and logic.”
Paul O'Brien, Great Decisions, Perfect Timing: Cultivating Intuitive Intelligence

James Rollins
“Are you sure, Gray?'
He lifted his eyes. 'No . . . I'm not. I'm not sure of a damn thing.' He slipped his hands free of the monsignor's and peeled the battery off the phone, cutting the last ring in half. 'But that doesn't mean I won't act.”
James Rollins, The Judas Strain
