Relentless. Tim Grover quotes.

-When people start broadcasting what they are going to do, and how great they are going to be when do it, it's a sure sign they are still trying to convince themselves.
-The loudest guy in the room is the one with the most to prove, and no way to prove it.
-A Cleaner has no need to announce his presence. You know he's there by the way he carries himself, always cool and confident. He's never the blowhard telling you how great he is. He is the quiet guy focused on results, because results are all that matter. 
-Respect is not just about what you can do physically. You have to be able to perform intellectually and mentally as well. The way you conduct yourself in all areas of your life, your ability to show intelligence, and class and self-control... those are the things that separate you from the rest of the pack.
-Show up, work hard and listen.
-When the answer is no, a Cleaner says no. He doesn't soften it or wrap it in something pretty. No excuses and no explanation afterward. When the other guy sees you had some indecision, he is going to try to negotiate.
-Never running. Always walking. He leaves smoothly and on his own terms.
- A cleaner can lose a battle because he is still planning to win the war. Lose a game, but win the season. Lose the season, come back and win the next three. Lose a job, start a new business. No one else is getting the last word on whether he succeeded.
