The society that scorns excellence in plumbing because it is a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy. Neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water."
John Gardner, Excellence, 1961
"The happy and efficient people in this world are those who accept trouble as a normal detail of human life and resolve to capitalize on it when it comes along."
