Quotes of the Day

On the average, people feel uncomfortable if you come more than within 24 inches of their "personal body space"--unless you find them sexually attractive. Women often use this invasion of a man's personal space as a way to announce their availability. When she moves too close, you must reward her aggressive move by a smile or even a slight move forward yourself. [2006] - Leil Lowndes

Make it a habit to associate only with the kind of people that you like, admire, respect, and want to be like. [2004] - Brian Tracy

It doesn't take a biology degree to understand the significance of a woman's putting something in her mouth when she is excited over a man. Often, a woman will combine one of the other signals, such as The Shoe Dangle, or The Eyelash Flutter, with sucking on a swizzle stick, plastic spoon, or even the tip of her finger. [2006] - Leil Lowndes

The most killer questions in sales: "Mr. Jones, when I say (insert your product, your company, or anything you want an opinion about here) what one word comes to mind?" This is the most powerful question because it not only gives you top of mind awareness (the customer "hot button"), it also tells you their attitude towards it. [2005] - Jeffrey Gitomer

As you age, your risk of developing and dying from cancer grows every year--until you hit eighty-five or ninety, when, interestingly, your cancer risk begins to drop. In deed, if you don't get cancer by a certain age, you may never get it. What accounts for this relative resistance to cancer among centenarians? It may have to do with a cancer-promoting growth hormone called insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). The release of IGF-1 appears to be triggered by the consumption of animal protein. Vegetarians who include eggs and dairy in their diets don't seem to achieve a significant reduction in IGF-1. Only men and women who limit their intake of all animal proteins appear able to significantly drop their levels of the cancer-promoting hormone and raise their levels of the protective binding proteins. [2015] - Michael Greger
