Aliko Dangote
103

Nandan Nilekani
116
I think every business, really, has a unique reason for being, unique assets, unique attributes, a unique history. And that can be turned into a very attractive design story, essentially, that consumers can relate to.

121

The public has no need to know details about intelligence assets or special operations units. Such disclosures endanger those who protect us.
129
Once you identify positional needs, then I think, then, what you do is, you be very selective on how you go about acquiring those players. You have to look at the resources available on how to acquire those players, and then, if you can, go acquire those assets that can best help this team get over the hump.
130
I believe in infrastructure, I believe in investing in your hard assets. Where I think government starts to fail is when it starts getting itself weighed down with the social programs. And I think the American public just feels like a lot of that money is tossed aside and wasted.

134

Neal Patterson
135
Social media’s greatest assets – anonymity, ‘virality,’ interconnectedness – are also its main weaknesses.
136
You have great assets if you’re a dual-threat, but you still have to throw from the pocket and do all those types of things.
137
I always like to refer managers in corporate America as the renters of the corporate assets, not the owners.
138
One should have a wide variety of assets in one’s portfolio. And oil, by the way, is a particularly important asset to have in one’s portfolio because we need it, and the economy thrives on it.

145
My view of AMD is that we have a tremendous set of technology assets, people, capability, customer relationships. We’re not going to define ourselves in somebody else’s shadow.
146
When does money run out of time? The countdown begins when investable assets pose too much risk for too little return; when lenders desert credit markets for other alternatives such as cash or real assets.
147
You can tax the rich to pay for current spending. You can even tax them very heavily. But when the rich look forward for decades and see nothing but increasing taxes, debts, and government control of their businesses and assets – they will leave.
148
The ability to network successfully can be one of the greatest assets in business. It allows some people to find incredible opportunities, while others just watch from the sidelines.
149
The middle class is a group defined by more than just money: it also leans on credentials, education, aspirations, assets, and, of course, household income.
150
As always, work with your figure; draping, pleats, and proportion can work miracles when it comes to hiding flaws and enhancing assets.
151
We have the fact we sell out every week to 67,500 and hopefully 75,000 in the future. We have a lot of assets.
David Gill
152

153
I would not trade America’s position in the world – our ledger, our debts and assets – for any country in the world. There isn’t a country in the world even close to America.
154

155
In the struggle between capital and labor, more often than not capital has won, because the real source of value for most companies has historically been the hard assets that they owned and controlled.

157

158
I’ve always been one to believe in leading by example – the state has a lot of land and assets along the transit route, so I think we ought to be looking at what plans we can make available.
159
The gig economy is empowerment. This new business paradigm empowers individuals to better shape their own destiny and leverage their existing assets to their benefit.
160
The value of a currency is, ultimately, what someone will give you for it – whether in food, fuel, assets, or labor. And that’s always and everywhere a subjective decision.
161
The public disclosure of assets by judges, though a welcome first step, is certainly not the end all of the serious problem of judicial accountability or the lack of it.
