Top 5 quotes from Colin Powell
"When we are debating an issue, loyalty means giving me your honest opinion, whether you think I'll like it or not. Disagreement, at this stage, stimulates me. But once a decision has been made, the debate ends. From that point on, loyalty means executing the decision as if it were your own."
"Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return."
"There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure."
"Experts often possess more data than judgment."
"You don't know what you can get away with until you try."

"If you cannot lift the load off another's back, do not walk away. Try to lighten it."
