I have so many, as I collect quotes, but this is my newest favorite:

"My Grandfather once told me that there were two kinds of people, those
who do the work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in
the first group because there was much less competition."
~ Indira Gandhi ~

Hugs and Smiles,
Peggy
