Business people aren’t famous for their bon mots. That didn’t stop Stuart Crainer from writing The Ultimate Book of Business Quotations. Not all the quotes are from business people. There’s also a wide range of athletes, politicians and poets, among others, from various eras. Here are a couple of samples of wisdom from businessmen. “Hire people cleverer than you are and delegate more than you think is good for you,” said Sir Peter Parker, former head of British Rail. Spoke Lee Iacocca: “People want economy, and they will pay any price to get it.” Reviewed by Neil Lipschutz.
