I'd rather have 1% of the effort of 100 men than 100% of my own effort. — © J. Paul Getty
I'd rather have 1% of the effort of 100 men than 100% of my own effort.
I would rather receive one percent of the income of 100 men, than 100% of the income of one man.
I would rather earn 1% off a 100 people's efforts than 100% of my own efforts.
Give me 100 percent. You can't make up for a poor effort today by giving 110 percent tomorrow. You don't have 110 percent. You only have 100 percent, and that's what I want from you right now.
Racing comes easily to me, especially the 100 metres. That is why, no matter how fast I run the run the 100 metres, the 200 will always mean more to me, because of the effort I've put in.
There has at least been a serious effort on the Turkish side to prevent people from setting off for Europe. Recently, only about 100 people have been arriving in Greece per day. Last year, it was several thousand daily at times. This effort can, however, also very quickly dwindle.
Nothing can be 100 percent sustainable, but every effort makes an impact.

What I do know is I'm going to give absolute 100 percent effort any time I'm on the court.
The effort you put into anything when you're a designer is 100% because it's all about what you get back out from it.
The way I look at it is, if you're going to play, you better put 100 percent effort into it all the time.
The first thing to be understood: effort is needed, but effort alone is not enough - effort and then effortlessness, effort plus effortlessness. Effort precedes, and then effortlessness follows. Effortlessness is the peak of effort, it comes only when you have reached the peak
'100 Bullets' is a novel on its own. 'Brother Lono,' other than the main character, has nothing to do with '100 Bullets.'
When I was in the Army, 100 percent of our effort was to really be sharp, and soldiers, we were under live fire all the time.
Congress, the press, and the bureaucracy too often focus on how much money or effort is spent, rather than whether the money or effort actually achieves the announced goal.
