- “I can’t say it enough that learning how to learn is one of the greatest skills anyone can have.” ~Mark Cuban.

- “Supply Chain is like nature, it is all around us.” ~Dave Waters
- “Because of my wartime experience, I am insistent on the point that logistics know-how must be maintained, that logistic is second to nothing in importance in warfare, that logistic training must be widespread and thorough.” ~ADM Robert B. Carney, USN.
