“I got along with people very well at every job I had, people liked me and I liked them and I loved being on my feet.”

Rent a wide-angle lens and good lighting, get rid of your clutter and post at least eight great photos to win the beauty contest.

I’m never in control of my time during the workday.

My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There’s no way I can control him. I wouldn’t stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.

Figure out what past efforts amounted to nothing and label them your “not to do” list. Post the list where you’ll see it.

When you’re in business, if you have some sort of gimmick it’s a huge advantage.

I was a hot-dog stand lady, I was an orphan housemother, I was a waitress 3 or 4 times. All of those jobs did not have good bosses. They basically told you what to do, when to do and when to hop. And I just didn’t like that very much.

The most effective way to build a brand is not by spending millions in advertising, but by finding a clever way to keep your name in the press.

The power of publicity is more important than advertising.

Your business is a part of yourself. Should it be? Who knows, but it sure feels that way. You can never really leave it.

The biggest challenge in business is not the competition, it’s what goes on inside your own head

Insecurity is a wonderful motivator.

A funny thing happens in real estate. When it comes back, it comes back up like gangbusters.

You steal the limelight, you steal the market share

Always choose attitude over experience. Always.

I have found, whether you have a tiny business or a big business, if you don’t jump on something right away, it’s like a bird flying by-it flies off.

Everybody thinks that they’re going to time the market, they’re going to sharpshoot the market, and buy right at the bottom. The truth of the matter is that nobody is good at it.

No white man uses his feet the way an Indian does. He talks to the earth.

Once he sees this fact his feet are on the path. If you want to know the truth you will know it.

When I first came to the House of Commons and walked out into the lobby, men sprang to their feet.

The choreographic process is exhausting. It happens on one’s feet after hours of work, and the energy required is roughly the equivalent of writing a novel and winning a tennis match simultaneously.

Walk towards the light, put it on your head and then crush your shadow that hides under your feet.

I’m on my feet and I’m doing what I love to do, and I’m in a profession, as a musician, where we can go on for as long as we can go on.

No one regards what is before his feet; we all gaze at the stars.

Control everything within 18 feet.
