This inspiring quote is from Ginni Rometty, the current Chairman and CEO of IBM, and the first woman to head that company.
Using a short, pithy quote is a great way to borrow wisdom from others and use it to support your cause. You don’t even need their permission!
A few observations:
- Use quotes sparingly lest their power be overly diluted.
- Keep them short and sweet. The best quotes tell a profound tale in the fewest words possible.
- Consider using one of your own — you are a wise expert after all.
My favorite? “Only the mediocre are always at their best.” from French novelist Jean Giraudoux.
