"Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups." can be restated as... Never underestimate the capacity of large groups to act stupidly. Corollary: If you want something done right, you'd best do it yourself. "Good against remotes is one thing. Good against the living, that's something else." (Han Solo) |

"The average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work. The world takes off its hat to those who put in more than 50% of their capacity, and stands on its head for those few and far between souls who devote 100%." - Andrew Carnegie LETS BEGIN IN 2010 |

"The greatest blunders, like the thickest ropes, are often compounded of a multitude of strands. Take the rope apart, separate it into the small threads that compose it, and you can break them one by one. You think, 'That is all there was!' But twist them all together and you have something tremendous." - Victor Hugo LETS BEGIN IN 2010 |
