"[...] Wobei es natürlich sehr viel schwieriger ist, die alte kakanische Nutte zu überleben, diese schlimmste unter allen Rabenmüttern, die ja nicht nur die Psychoanalyse, die Philosophie und die Barmherzigkeit aus ihren Gefilden verjagt hat, sondern auch immer wieder unbedeutende, kleine Bürger in der brutalsten Weise von sich stößt.

Because I guarantee you that your competitors are working really, really hard. So in a sense, good management is hard by definition: the challenge is to balance pushing hard with the good of the team."
