Gerry Harvey Quotes

All I can say to you, if you look after your health, eat the right stuff, do enough exercise, keep your mind active, you might be around when you’re 100 having this conversation with someone Picture Quote #1

I try to develop others. I get a great deal of joy out of helping people who, over the years, I’ve spent a lot of time mentoring - and just trying to get them to another level Picture Quote #1

If you do genuinely care about people and love them a little, eventually you all have this common goal about where you want to go. They see it, and they believe it, and they become believers with you, and you can achieve wonderful things Picture Quote #1
