W. Edwards Deming


What we need to do is learn to work in the system, by which I mean that everybody, every team, every platform, every division, every component is there not for individual competitive profit or recognition, but for contribution to the system as a whole on a win-win basis.

Howard Crosby


A wisely chosen illustration is almost essential to fasten the truth upon the ordinary mind, and no teacher can afford to neglect this part of his preparation.

Richard Jordan


The law demands good works and uses its terror--rejection, shame, fear of punishment, unanswered prayer, personal tragedy, etc.--as motivation. Here performance is a necessity to secure the blessings and avoid the curses. Grace, on the other hand, allows us to serve on a different basis--not from fear but on the basis of love and gratitude, from appreciation and gladness for blessings freely given and freely received.

Antonin Scalia


Bear in mind that brains and learning, like muscle and physical skill, are articles of commerce. They are bought and sold. You can hire them by the year or by the hour. The only thing in the world not for sale is character.

Jacob Bronowski, 1976


The most wonderful discovery made by scientists is science itself.

Martha Graham


Dance is the hidden language of the soul of the body.

Arthur Guiterman


Active minds that think and study, Like swift brooks are seldom muddy.

Gerald W. Johnson


No man was ever endowed with a right without being at the same time saddled with a responsibility.

Nicholai Velimirovic


Be humble, for the worst thing in the world is of the same stuff as you; be confident, for the stars are of the same stuff as you.

Unknown


One truly cannot be described, If the one doing the describing Has a bad attitude.

Prima la musica, poi le parole (first the music, then the words)
