Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or employees:
“a notable prince that was called King John;
And he ruled England with main and with might,
For he did great wrong, and maintained little right.”

“I have said many times, and it is literally true, that there is absolutely nothing that could keep me in business, if my job were simply business to me. The human problems which I deal with every day—concerning employees as well as customers—are the problems that fascinate me, that seem important to me.”
