Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, magic, and power in it.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Negotiation in the classic diplomatic sense assumes parties more anxious to agree than to disagree.

Dean Acheson

The most difficult thing in any negotiation, almost, is making sure that you strip it of the emotion and deal with the facts.

Howard Baker

This is a classic negotiation technique. It's a gentle, soft indication of your disapproval and a great way to keep negotiating. Count to 10. By then, the other person usually will start talking and may very well make a higher offer.

Bill Coleman

Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate.

John F. Kennedy
