I have always wondered at the passion many people have to meet the celebrated. The “advantage” you acquire by being able to tell your friends that you know famous men proves only that you are yourself of small account. The celebrated develop a technique to deal with the persons they come across. They show the world a mask, often an impressive one, but take care to conceal their real selves. They play the part that is expected from them, and with practice learn to play it very well, but you are stupid if you think that this public performance of theirs corresponds with the man within.

Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a variety of services, including labor, professional, transportation, and public services. The interrelationships of all these prices make up the “system” of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.

When you speak and write, no law says you have to use big words. Short words are as good as long ones, and short, old words like sun and grass and home are best of all. A lot of small words can meet your needs with a strength, grace and charm that large words lack. Big words can make the way dark for those who hear what you say and read what you write, while short words are bright, like sparks that glow in the night. If a long word says just what you want, do not fear to use it. But know that our language is rich in short words. Make them the spine and the heart of what you speak and write. Like loyal friends, they will not let you down.

In many Western countries, a considerable number of parents have removed their children from school and are teaching them at home. Such children do all their normal lessons at home, often under the guidance of a parent. The first thing to consider is whether this is legal or not. In most countries it is, so long as parents can prove that their children are receiving an adequate education, equal to that provided by their state educational system. The next consideration is whether the parents have the time, self-discipline, intelligence and patience to teach their own child week after week, day in and day out, for hours on end. Then there is the problem of what will be taught, and how.

We all have strengths and weaknesses. A good manager concentrates on bringing out of each employee’s best side and combining those strengths so they complement each other. Since no one person can have all the skills needed to successfully operate any organization, we need to build your team in a way that makes use of these skills. That is no small matter. You must begin by knowing your team members.When you know people,you learn what motivates them and what de-motivates them.You learn how they interact with certain people and under certain conditions. You pay attention to their working style, how they get things done.Only with this kind of information can you get the most out of all people, and merge their talents to get the most out of the team.
