Quotes of the Day

Here are a few places to meet or take your customer: a ball game, the theater, a concert, a gallery crawl, a Chamber after hours event, a community help project, a breakfast, a lunch, a dinner, a seminar given by your company. If your customer has kids, get a few tickets to the IMAX theater in your town, and go on the weekend. [2005] - Jeffrey Gitomer

It is not sufficient just to take walks; adding on more exerting exercises, where the heart rate is elevated, and sustaining that elevation for at least 5 minutes has additional benefits. I advise you to exercise vigorously, with jogging, jumping in place, and other heart-rate-elevating exercises or activities. Keep your leg muscles and the central muscles in the abdomen and back strong. To achieve maximum benefit, exercise at least three days per week. [2011] - Joel Fuhrman

The public has been conditioned to believe that dental cleanings are for the benefit of their teeth. The truth is that professional cleanings may reduce deposits, but they cannot stop the regrowth of acid-loving bacteria, and cleanings themselves cannot strengthen or protect your teeth. No amount of brushing, flossing, or professional cleanings can completely rid your mouth of bacteria. Unless you remove the conditions that promote harmful bacterial problems, more harmful bacteria will grow back and any cycle of damage will be repeated. [2025] - Ellie Phillips

Having dinner on a first date is a bad idea. [2004] - Nicholas Boothman

You take a large risk buying an index focusing on a single foreign country. It's better to diversify and go with the total international stock market index. Within it, you'll have exposure to older world economies such as England, France, and Germany, as well as the younger, fast-growing economies of China, India, Brazil, and Thailand. Just remember to rebalance. If the international stock market goes on a tear, don't chase it with fresh money. If your domestic stock index and the international stock index both shoot skyward, add fresh money to your bond index. [2017] - Andrew Hallam
