There is perhaps no greater cause of professional anxiety and exasperation - not to mention turnover - than employees having to fight with people in their own organization. Understandably and inevitably, this bleeds over into their personal lives, affecting family and friends in profound ways. — Patrick Lencioni

If only I could get out of my mind the most patriotic people who ever lived, the Nazi Germans. — Andy Rooney
