  15. Built to Last v. Built to Flip“The problem with Built to Last is that it’s a romantic notion. Large companies are incapable of ongoing innovation, of ongoing flexibility.”“Increasingly, successful businesses will be ephemeral. They will be built to yield something of value – and once that value has been exhausted, they will vanish.”Fast Company

  16. Warren Bennis & Patricia Ward Biederman/ Organizing Genius:Great Groups Don’t Last Very Long!

  17. W.A. Mozart 1756 – 1791HE CHANGED THE WORLD AND ENRICHED HUMANITY

  18. “We are in abrawl with no rules.”Paul Allaire

  19. Forbes100 from 1917 to 1987: 39 members of the Class of ’17 were alive in ’87; 18 in ’87 F100; 18 F100 “survivors” underperformed the market by 20%; just 2 (2%), GE & Kodak, outperformed the market 1917 to 1987.S&P 500 from 1957 to 1997: 74 members of the Class of ’57 were alive in ’97; 12 (2.4%) of 500 outperformed the market from 1957 to 1997.Source: Dick Foster & Sarah Kaplan, Creative Destruction: Why Companies That Are Built to Last Underperform the Market

  20. “The difficulties … arise from the inherent conflict between the need to control existing operations and the need to create the kind of environment that will permit new ideas to flourish—and old ones to die a timely death. … We believe that most corporations will find it impossible to match or outperform the market without abandoning the assumption of continuity. … The current apocalypse—the transition from a state of continuity to state of discontinuity—has the same suddenness [as the trauma that beset civilization in 1000 A.D.]” Richard Foster & Sarah Kaplan, “Creative Destruction” (The McKinsey Quarterly)

  21. Rate of Leaving F5001970-1990: 4XSource: The Company, John Micklethwait & Adrian Wooldridge (1974-200: One-half biggest 100 disappear)

  22. “The corporation as we know it, which is now 120 years old, isnot likely to survive the next 25 years.Legally and financially, yes, but not structurally and economically.”Peter Drucker, Business 2.0

  23. “But what if [former head of strategic planning at Royal Dutch Shell] Arie De Geus is wrong in suggesting, in The Living Company, that firms should aspire to live forever? Greatness is fleeting and, for corporations, it will become ever more fleeting. The ultimate aim of a business organization, an artist, an athlete or a stockbroker may be to explode in a dramatic frenzy of value creation during a short space of time, rather than to live forever.”Kjell Nordström and Jonas Ridderstråle,Funky Business

  30. “You can’t behave in a calm, rational manner. You’ve got to be out there on the lunatic fringe.”— Jack Welch, on GE’s quality program

  31. “When it comes to transformative technologies, overoptimistic investors are actually working for the common good—even if they don’t know it. We can be glad that investors financed the construction of thousands of miles of track in the middle of the nineteenth century, despite the fact that most of them dropped a bundle doing it. The same goes for over-optimistic investors who poured money into semiconductors thirty years ago, financed undersea fiber-optic cables in the late nineties, and now are poised to lose their shirts in the coming nanobubble. In the dreams of avarice lie the seeds of progress.” —james Surowiecki/New Yorker/03.2004

  32. “the wildest chimera of a moonstruck mind”—The Federalist on Jefferson’s Louisiana Purchase

  33. “Roosevelt’s duplicity, Churchill’s self-absorption” … “We are all worms. But I do believe that I am a glow-worm.” (WSC) … “Imperial and bold” [WSC and TR] … “arrogance and instability” … “rough, sarcastic, bullying”Source: Jon Meacham, Franklin and Winston, et al.

  34. “a vainglorious self-promoter spoiling for a fight”—Arthur Koestler on Galileo

  35. “In my experience, all successful commanders are prima donnas, and must be so treated.”—George S. Patton

  36. Herman Melville on JPJ: “intrepid, unprincipled, reckless, predatory, with boundless ambition, civilized in externals but a savage at heart.”—from Evan Thomas, John Paul Jones: Sailor, Hero, Father of the American Navy

  37. Audie Murphy was the most decorated soldier in WW2. He won every medal we had to offer, plus 5 presented by Belgium and France. There was one common medal he never won …

  41. “In Tom’s world it’s always better to try a swan dive and deliver a colossal belly flop than to step timidly off the board while holding your nose.” —Fast Company /October2003

  43. “In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed—and produced Michelangelo, da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce—the cuckoo clock.”Orson Welles, as Harry Lime, in “The Third Man”
