- Fischer, Edward
Excellence Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Excellence

1.
The idea for which this nation stands will not survive if the highest goal free man can set themselves is an amiable mediocrity. Excellence implies striving for the highest standards in every phase of life.
Gardner, John W.

The principle is competing against yourself. It's about self improvement, about being better than you were the day before.
Young, Steve

You have to create a track record of breaking your own mold, or at least other people's idea of that mold.
Hurt, William

4.
If something is exceptionally well done it has embedded in it's very existence the aim of lifting the common denominator rather than catering to it.

Robinson, James H.

18.
Great men are little men expanded; great lives are ordinary lives intensified.
Peterson, Wilferd A.

19.
Do your work; not just your work and no more, but a little more for the lavishing's sake -- that little more which is worth all the rest.
Briggs, Dean

20.
One of the great undiscovered joys of life comes from doing everything one attempts to the best of one's ability. There is a special sense of satisfaction, a pride in surveying such a work, a work which is rounded, full, exact, complete in its parts, which the superficial person who leaves his or her work in a slovenly, slipshod, half-finished condition, can never know. It is this conscientious completeness which turns any work into art. The smallest task, well done, becomes a miracle of achievement.
Mandino, Og

21.
There is none who cannot teach somebody something, and there is none so excellent but he is excelled.
Gracian, Baltasar

22.
I have the simplest tastes. I am always satisfied with the best.
Wilde, Oscar

23.
I use nothing but the best ingredients. My cookies are always baked fresh. I price cookies so that you cannot make them at home for any less. And I still give cookies away.
Fields, Debbie

24.
Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later.
Mandino, Og

25.
I am a writer because writing is the thing I do best.
O'Connor, Flannery

26.
I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day.
Lincoln, Abraham

27.
If you aren't playing well, the game isn't as much fun. When that happens I tell myself just to go out and play as I did when I was a kid.
Watson, Thomas J.

28.
It isn't what you do, but how you do it.
Wooden, John

29.
Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.
Gardner, John W.

30.
You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
Feinstein, Dianne

31.
Just make up your mind at the very outset that your work is going to stand for quality... that you are going to stamp a superior quality upon everything that goes out of your hands, that whatever you do shall bear the hall-mark of excellence.
Marden, Orison Swett

32.
The success combination in business is: Do what you do better... and: Do more of what you do...
Schwartz, David J.

33.
A racehorse that consistently runs just a second faster than another horse is worth millions of dollars more. Be willing to give that extra effort that separates the winner from the one in second place.
Brown Jr., H. Jackson

34.
Excellence means when a man or woman asks of himself more than others do.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

35.
Four short words sum up what has lifted most successful individuals above the crowd: a little bit more. They did all that was expected of them and a little bit more.
Vickery, A. Lou

36.
With regard to excellence, it is not enough to know, but we must try to have and use it.
Aristotle

37.
Then to Silvia let us sing that Silvia is excelling. She excels each mortal thing upon the dull earth dwelling.
Shakespeare, William

38.

Riley, Pat

39.
You're probably not a member of a major league baseball team, your errors, unless they are truly spectacular, don't show up in the morning paper.
Goodsell, Jane

40.
When you say you'll meet someone at 11:00 AM, be there at 10:45. When you promise a check on the 30th, send it on the 28th. Whatever you agree to do, do it a bit more. Start with your employees, then extend it to everyone you deal with. News will soon get around that you are a person of your word.
Scott, Charles Prestwich

41.
Excellent firms don't believe in excellence -- only in constant improvement and constant change.
Peters, Thomas J.

Superiority -- doing things a little better than anybody else can do them.
Marden, Orison Swett

50.
It is only in your mind that you have to excel, at anything or everything. Of course, it would be very nice to excel at most things. Indeed, we recommend that you try and do your best. But realistically, you are entitled to do the bare minimum to get by. All your accomplishments are just a bonus, something to enjoy, not requirements. You don't have to do anything to prove that you are worthy of existing.
Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi
