Ed Catmull
“THERE IS NOTHING quite like ignorance combined with a driving need to succeed to force rapid learning.”
Ed Catmull, Creativity, Inc.: an inspiring look at how creativity can - and should - be harnessed for business success by the founder of Pixar

Nancy F. Koehn
“Both secretaries thought Lincoln should curtail the time he spent seeing individual citizens, but he continued to hold office hours throughout his presidency. Labeling the visits “public opinion baths,” Lincoln viewed them as an important means to gauge popular sentiment about the war and his policies.”
Nancy F. Koehn, Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times

Nancy F. Koehn
“But Lincoln was never motivated primarily by money. Measured against his father’s livelihood, the son made a good living. Lincoln was also consistently careful about his reputation. He may have wanted to avoid any hint of impropriety associated with charging high prices—either to poor clients who couldn’t afford them or to wealthier ones to whom he might feel beholden. Lincoln might also have wanted people to remember him as a lawyer who underpromised and overdelivered. This strategy was good for building a legal practice. It was also useful for one interested in electoral politics. In the 1860 presidential election, for example, Lincoln’s small fees would be held up as evidence of his good character.”
Nancy F. Koehn, Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times

Nancy F. Koehn
“His was not a story of superhuman heroism. Lincoln’s journey was one of learning by doing, ongoing commitment to bettering himself, keen intelligence harnessed to equally acute emotional awareness, and the moral seriousness into which he grew as he attained immense power. It was also an all-too-human path marked by setbacks, derailments, and disappointments.”
Nancy F. Koehn, Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times

Nancy F. Koehn
“Lincoln had read the Bible all his life, but he had never attended church regularly or talked publicly about sustaining any kind of spiritual faith.”
Nancy F. Koehn, Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times
