Making a deal - quotes I found to be thought-provoking

Saw a couple of quotes, thought I'd share them here:

Vince McMahon:
I don't mind paying people more for something if we're getting more. But just to change a deal because you're greedy and you want more? No. I'm not gonna go along with that.

Donald Trump:
People get caught up in wonderful, eye-catching pitches, but they don't do enough to close the deal. It's no good if you don't make the sale. Even if your foot is in the door or you bring someone into a conference room, you don't win the deal unless you actually get them to sign on the dotted line.

John D. Rockefeller:
A friendship founded on business is a good deal better than a business founded on friendship.

I like Rockefeller's quote! Because it's so so true.
I have seen a lot of beautiful friendships ruined because of money and business related misunderstandings.
