Nirmalya Kumar

Growth and profit are a product of how people work together.

Ricardo Semler

you're a product just as much. a product of a product. the people who design cars, they're products, your teachers, products. the minister in your church, another product.

Happiness is the sense that one matters. Happiness is an abiding enthusiasm. Happiness is single-mindedness. Happiness is whole-heartedness. Happiness is a by-product. Happiness is faith.
