• Nunca descuides los pequeños detalles. Nunca escatimes ese esfuerzo extra, esos pocos minutos adicionales, esa palabra suave de elogio o agradecimiento, esa entrega de lo mejor que puedes hacer. No importa lo que piensen los demás, lo que importa es lo que piensen de ti.

Nunca descuides las pequeñas cosas.

• Cutting corners no doubt makes the job easier for the government, but making the government's job easier is rarely a priority.
