Quotes by Stephen A. Schwarzman  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“it’s as hard to start and run a small business as it is to start a big one. You will suffer the same toll financially and psychologically as you bludgeon it into existence. It’s hard to raise the money and to find the right people. So if you’re going to dedicate your life to a business, which is the only way it will ever work, you should choose one with the potential to be huge.”
Stephen A. Schwarzman, What It Takes: Lessons in the Pursuit of Excellence

“The best executives are made, not born. They absorb information, study their own experiences, learn from their mistakes, and evolve.”
Stephen A. Schwarzman, What It Takes: Lessons in the Pursuit of Excellence

“Regardless of how you begin your careers, it is important to realize that your life will not necessarily move in a straight line. You have to recognize that the world is an unpredictable place. Sometimes even gifted people such as yourselves will get knocked back on their heels. It is inevitable that you will confront many difficulties and hardships during your lives. When you face setbacks, you have to dig down and move yourself forward. The resilience you exhibit in the face of adversity—rather than the adversity itself—will be what defines you as a person.”
