There's nothing worse than being disappointed in somebody.

When I run into disappointment - say, for example, not getting a role I'd hoped for - I just try not to take it personally.

In other words, don't expect to always be great. Disappointments, failures and setbacks are a normal part of the lifecycle of a unit or a company and what the leader has to do is constantly be up and say 'we have a problem, let's go and get it'.

I'm most scared of failing, of disappointing people.

What I've really learned over time is that optimism is a very, very important part of leadership.

Some people will always be disappointed.

I think making mistakes is as inevitable as receiving disappointments.

Vote for the man who promises least; he'll be the least disappointing.

I'm very comfortable with failure. I'm very comfortable being the guy who disappoints people.

I've had a lot of disappointments. I think my biggest disappointment is the failure of elected officials to make good on their promises in regards to the environment or anything else, really. I have very little faith in politicians.
