"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

The big down side of this is that damn near everyone thinks they are a good person.

Very few people wake up in the morning and say to themselves, "Wow, what a great day. Think of how much evil I can get done by quitting time."

"When all else fails, lower your standards".

I don't know who originally said this, but it's been my guiding principle throughout life. It's applicable in any situation, professional or personal.
