“A rising tide lifts all the boats”

“As they say on my own Cape Cod, a rising tide lifts all the boats. And a partnership, by definition, serves both partners, without domination or unfair advantage. Together we have been partners in adversity — let us also be partners in prosperity.”

“Rise like the tide,
No need to hide.”

“My day is done, and I am like a boat drawn on the beach, listening to the dance-music of the tide in the evening.”

“The Duke’s moustache was rising and falling like seaweed on an ebb-tide.”

“They cannot roll back the rising tide of reform... The world moves.”

“A sail boat that sails backwards can never see the sun rise.”

“A rising economic tide is bad for people who live off of the poverty of others.”

“"Be in high-growth markets." In the old economic order, in the age of market share, volume growth was a guarantor of success. Growth was what we were taught to pursue. It created higher profits for all, including market share laggards, companies with poor business designs, and companies that were poorly managed. A rising tide raised all boats. One manager articulated the classic view: "There are no management problems that volume growth can't solve. Even if we manage poorly, rising revenue helps cover the mistakes we made."”

“A man can only rise, conquer, and achieve by lifting up his thoughts.”
