Alexandar the Great:
There is this story of Alexandar the Great, who had won a war, for which he was not even hopeful. While his troops were making merry, he just stood apart looking up at the sky thoughtfully. And when his general repeatedly reminded him to join the celebration, he replied that he can’t as he was busy thinking about the next war and how to win it.

Alyque Padamsee:
“If creative people hesitate over the objective of their work, they could end up becoming the advertisement departments of their clients, making only made-to-order campaigns. At the same time, too often a brilliant campaign is lost because one has not been able to talk the language of the client. The run-up is as important as the delivery. But how often have mistakes been committed because proper research was not undertaken.”

Sunila Nagvekar, D.G.Ruparel College:
Troubles are like waves, at times big, at times small.
Few know how to tackle them, most not at all.
The small ones are routine, fizzling out like bubbles,
The big ones require patience and mettle,
While some, with a little fate are scuttles.
Occasionally, a giant one comes along,
Taking everyone in a throng;
All perish, but one,
And this sole survivor restarts, despite the pain,
Armed with an experience and a confidence gain,
To challenge them once again.

Sarosh Dastoor:
“If you want to impose the maximum mental irritation and anguish on others, simply ignore them. You might bug or bother them a little in the other ways, but if you want to really scar others emotionally and mentally, just ignore them completely… Though, unfortunately, these tactics never work for the long run. Big people are big because they do not carry grudges, resentments and subdued hatred. The psychiatrists’ offices are filled with little people, however, who are carrying grudges, animosities, jealousies and repressed angers… Be nicest to others when you feel least like it. Quite a challenge, but that is exactly what the big people were doing that made them big. They were being nicest to people when they were least expected to.”

The Road Not Taken. By Robert Frost:
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less travelled by,

“Fortunately, I have been lucky never to have contacted this peculiarly Indian disease. As editor of Business India, Business World and several other publications, I often had to put in 14-15 hours a day. But I always made it a point to answer any letters, return telephone calls and keep up appointments, no matter how busy I may have been. And my experience has been that observing this business courtesy paid handsome dividends. They landed me some of my biggest stories and most valuable information – often in a roundabout manner.”
