I don't know that this is really a quote, but it's a thought at least. I was listening to the Glen Beck radio program and he had Richard Paul Evans on as a guest. Richard said that the most powerful 7 words you'll ever know are, "is that the best you can do?"
He sited an example of when that worked for him while shopping at Costco for a large screen tv, he asked the sales man "Is that the best you can do?", he went and asked his boss and the price of the tv went down.
Another example he sited was of a young family with a newly adopted baby and $20,000 in hospital bills. The young mother called the hospital and said those magic words, she was told that her bill could be reduced to a mere $2,000 if she could have it paid w/i a month.
I encourage you to say those words and let me know how it goes. I've got a few things to try it on next week.

I read the transcript from this interview and loved this question as well. What a powerful concept! I also find it a great question to ask myself, to see if I've done all I can: "Is this the best I can do?"
