About this Quote

This quote by Bill Irwin is referring to the reality that he and his 3 co-stars were all chosen for an award.

This implies that Page was instrumental in the success of the job which the 4 of them might not have actually attained the acknowledgment they did without his guidance. Irwin's quote is a testament to the power of partnership and the importance of having a strong leader to highlight the very best in everybody. It also serves as a pointer that success is typically the outcome of a cumulative effort and that no one individual can take all the credit.
