“There is a virtuous cycle between your responsibilities and your relationships. You strengthen your relationships by learning the best ways to get, give, and encourage guidance; by putting the right people in the right roles on your team; and by achieving results collectively that you couldn’t dream of individually. Of course, there can be a vicious cycle between your responsibilities and your relationships, too. When you fail to give people the guidance they need to succeed in their work, or put people into roles they don’t want or aren’t well-suited for, or push people to achieve results they feel are unrealistic, you erode trust.”
― Kim Malone Scott, Radical Candor: How to Get What You Want by Saying What You Mean

“Poirot," I said. "I have been thinking."

― Ngaio Marsh, Ngaio Marsh: A Life
