Zitate und Sprüche von Jack Welch

Control your own destiny or someone else will.

Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.

Be candid with everyone.

Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion.

No wonder the city never sleeps, it's too busy trying to get laid.

There are eight million people in this city. And those teeming masses exist for the sole purpose of lifting the few exceptional people onto their shoulders.

If I can make it there
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New York

Manhattan, for millions of our forefathers, the gateway to hope, opportunity and happiness beyond their wildest dreams. Today, that hope is still alive, it's called "The First Date". On Saturday nights, every restaurant in Lower Manhattan resembles its own little Ellis Island.

I want to wake up in that city
That doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill
Top of the heap

In a city that moves so fast, you get the Sunday paper on Saturday - how did any of us know how much time we had left?

We are New Yorkers. Proud citizens of the greatest city on earth. Thinking big isn't new to us. It is the very foundation of who we are.

Regardless of our differences, this was still New York. A melting pot crammed onto an island, then pushed into a subway car with a rat eating pizza. You're not left or right. You're a New f*cking Yorker and we're in this together.

Do you know how bad that coffee has to be to to be considered a health risk in New York? This is the same city where pizza gets delivered by a rat!

I don't wanna f*ck it up because one of us didn't prepare for the slim possibility of New York City traffic!

I remember Hell's Kitchen when you couldn't walk west of Ninth Avenue without getting knifed. Now it's Chelsea with better gays.

You're gonna like Massachusetts. It's very patriotic - perfect for a fresh start.

I'm lucky to have been raised in the most beautiful place - Amherst, Massachusetts, state of my heart. I'm more patriotic to Massachusetts than to almost any place.

I will work my heart out to earn the trust of the people of Massachusetts.

The man in the White House is not the cause of what is broken, he is just the latest and most extreme symptom of what's gone wrong in America. A product of a rigged system that props up the rich and powerful and kicks dirt on everyone else.

I went to Massachusetts to make a difference. I didn't go there to begin a political career running time and time again. I made a difference. I put in place the things I wanted to do.

Only a liberal senator from Massachusetts would say that a 49 percent increase in funding for education was not enough.

They say money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a flight to Massachusetts - and that's pretty much the same thing.

A true leader does what is right, no matter what others think.

Lead from the back and let others believe they are in front.

Only the most broken people can be great leaders.

Nothing so conclusively proves a man's ability to lead others as what he does from day to day to lead himself.

Leaders always step up, regardless of the circumstances.

Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

Fate is called as such, for it cannot be changed, nor can it be reversed. It can only but be accepted.

Anything is possible if you got enough nerve.

To me, the very definition of the word "broken" suggests that something can be fixed.

If you have no reason to stay, that is exactly the best to go.

Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest... honestly!

The boss isn't always right, but he's still the boss.

Mr. President, Ukraine did not "start" this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.
