• Becoming a real researcher has been the ultimate humbling experience for me. Nature is the examiner from hell; if you find new things at all, you always find them the hard way, with sweat and tears. Only then do you notice that there was a really easy way to find them. But this insight rarely arrives before you have been utterly humiliated and reduced to despair.

• The mother condemned for a witch and burnt with dry
  wood, and her children gazing on;
  The hounded slave that flags in the race and leans by the
  fence, blowing and covered with sweat,
  The twinges that sting like needles his legs and neck,
  The murderous buckshot and the bullets,
  All these I feel or am.

• When we are constantly recreating our basic patterns of behavior and thought, we never have to leap into fresh air or onto fresh grass. Instead, we wrap ourselves in our own dark environment, where our only companion is the smell of our own sweat. In the cocoon, there is no dance, no walking or breathing. It is comfortable and sleepy, an intense and very familiar home.

• To be the best and stay there sweat is necessary.
  I'm older. Of course I'm older. That's the beauty of it.
  Sixteen years plus different level of wisdom. Different level of understanding. Different level of punishment.
  i want to live loooong after my records have fallen, long after my rings have tarnished.
  Whatever you got to do to make sure you chase your legacy. Every second of your life.
  How will you be remembered? How will you be remembered?
  Why wouldn't you fight for the greatest achievement ever?
  Leave your mark to endure forever.

• You have to be prepared to give creative work 150%. I hear a lot of young people talking about life/work balance, which I think is great when you’re in your 30s. If you’re in your 20s and already talking about that, I don’t think you will achieve your goals. If you really want to build a powerful career, and make an impact, then you have to be prepared to put in blood, sweat, and tears.

• Why not make the work easier and more interesting so that people do not have to sweat?  The Toyota style is not to create results by working hard. It is a system that says there is no limit to people’s creativity.  People don’t go to Toyota to ‘work’ they go there to ‘think’

• I have everything in the world that is necessary to happiness, good faith, good friends and all the work I can possibly do.

I believe in toil, in the dignity of labor, but I also believe in adequate compensation for that toil.
