Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them. 

It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste. 

Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently. 

Really big people are, above everything else, courteous, considerate and generous - not just to some people in some circumstances - but to everyone all the time. 

Every time we've moved ahead in IBM, it was because someone was willing to take a chance, put his head on the block, and try something new. 

If you stand up and be counted, from time to time you may get yourself knocked down. But remember this: A man flattened by an opponent can get up again. A man flattened by conformity stays down for good. 

Wisdom is the power to put our time and our knowledge to the proper use. 

Politics are very much like war. We may even have to use poison gas at times. 

No idea is so outlandish that it should not be considered with a searching but at the same time a steady eye.

There comes a time when the mind takes a higher plane of knowledge but can never prove how it got there.

Of all the inventions of humans, the computer is going to rank near or at the top as history unfolds and we look back. It is the most awesome tool that we have ever invented. I feel incredibly lucky to be at exactly the right place in Silicon Valley, at exactly the right time, historically, where this invention has taken form.

You can't just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they'll want something new.

My favorite things in life don't cost any money. It's really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

This is not the time to marry. My country is calling me. I have taken a vow to serve the country with my heart and soul.

He who is too busy doing good finds no time to be good.

Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.

The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.

Let your life lightly dance on the edge of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.

Time is not measured by the passing of years but by what one does, what one feels, and what one achieves.

Writing is my love. If you love something, you find a lot of time. I write for two hours a day, usually starting at midnight; at times, I start at 11.
