"Business is like a wheel barrow, nothing happens until you push."

I just saw this one on a Quora post, hence the idea for this post. Post yours - motivational, deep, funny, wise, etc. Anything and everything is welcome.

Enjoy!

Back to domaining quotes again, from Shane Cultra's blog post:

“Don’t buy a name you aren’t willing to own if you aren’t able to sell it.” -Rick Latona

I’m selling this domain name cuz I need money to fund another project -I’m not sure who said it originally but everyone seems to quote it

Most of what you have is only really valuable to you. -?

“Arriving at the real value of a domain is like a blind man, in a dark room, looking for a black dog – that just might not be there…“

“Higher Offer received via PM” -everyone on a domain forum

“.tel will revolutionize the way people communicate around the world” ~TelNic @Acroplex found this one

“what’s the value of a click, if that click leads to the sale of a $20m plane…?” -Rick Schwartz

"I guess I was afraid to smile because I was worried the audience would not bid if I looked like I was happy about making money.“ — Rick Latona

“Just because an end user might have a lot of money, it doesn’t mean they will pay a lot of money for a domain.” — DomainsInc

“A small businessman who buys a domain in a new extension will essentially be invisible on the web.“ — Ron Jackson

“It’s good to feel scared, it means you have something to lose” -?

“In my 6 years of scanning expiring domain name lists I’ve found that only 7-12% of all names that expire mean anything to more than one person” Frank Schilling
.

"Some people need to remind themselves to think out the box, some people have to remind themselves to stop thinking out the box, so they can "fit in". Some people can not survive without the box. Then you get the few who understand that there is no box, it never existed in the first place" - Me :xf.grin:

OK, now that I've had a good pee...

I love Winston Churchill quotes:

"Dogs look up to you, cats look down on you. Give me a pig! He looks you in the eye and treats you as an equal."

"I could not live without Champagne. In victory I deserve it. In defeat I need it."

"Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few."

Bessie Braddock a British Member of Parliament said: “Winston, you are drunk, and what’s more you are disgustingly drunk.”
Churchill replied: "Bessie, my dear, you are ugly, and what’s more, you are disgustingly ugly. But tomorrow I shall be sober and you will still be disgustingly ugly."

"A lie will gallop halfway round the world before the truth has time to pull its breeches on."

Churchill to Nancy Astor:
Nancy Astor:
“If I were married to you, I’d put poison in your coffee.”
Winston: "If I were married to you, I’d drink it."

"I am a man of simple tastes—I am quite easily satisfied with the best of everything."

"I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, sweat and tears."

"I have taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of me."

"You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life."

"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."

And probably my favorite Churchill quote on describing the Russians:
"Russia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma."
