It Is A Simple But

Never Forget Posterity When Devising A Policy. Never Think Of Posterity When Making A Speech.

A Man May Be A Tough, Concentrated, Successful Moneymaker And Never Contribute To His Country Anything More Than A Horrible Example. A Manager May Be Tough And Practical, Squeezing Out, While The Going Is Good, The Last Ounce Of Profit And Dividend, And May Leave Behind Him An Exhausted Industry And A Legacy Of Industrial Hatred. A Tough Manager May Never Look Outside His Own Factory Walls Or Be Conscious Of His Partnership In A Wider World. I Often Wonder What Strange Cud Such Men Sit Chewing When Their Working Days Are Over, And The Accumulating Riches Of The Mind Have Eluded Them.

It Is A Simple But Sometimes Forgotten Truth That The Greatest Enemy To Present Joy And High Hopes Is The Cultivation Of Retrospective Bitterness.

In All My Life I Have Treated The Press With Marked Contempt And Remarkable Success.

Men Of Genius Are Not To Be Analysed By Commonplace Rules. The Rest Of Us Who Have Been Or Are Leaders, More Commonplace In Our Quality, Will Do Well To Remember Two Things. One Is Never To Forget Posterity When Devising A Policy. The Other Is Never To Think Of Posterity When Making A Speech.
