So that, in effect, all business sagacity reduces itself in the last analysis to judicious use of sabotage.

John of Kronstadt

We only want to link up with people whom we like, admire, and trust. ... We do not wish to join with managers who lack admirable qualities, no matter how attractive the prospects of their business. We've never succeeded in making a good deal with a bad person.

Warren Buffett

When we trust our brother, whom we have seen, we are learning to trust God, whom we have not seen.
