Favorite Quotations
"Selection is designed to find the individualist with a sense of discipline rather than a person who is primarily a good member of a team. For the self disciplined indivdualist will always fit well into a team when team work is required but a person selected for teamwork is by no means always suitable for work outside of the team."
