Diane Lockhart at her best

“When the door that you’ve been knocking at finally swings open, you don’t ask why. You run through. That is the simple fact. No one is here to make it comfortable for you. No one is here to appreciate your moping. So this is my advice to you: take a minute for yourself, put on your best gracious voice, find a way to wear a smile and then come into the conference room and thank the equity partners for giving you this opportunity because what is given can quickly be taken away.”
