“A project is complete when it starts working for you, rather than you working for it.”
Scott Allen
“People ask me when I start one of these projects, what is your theme? I haven’t the faintest idea. That’s why you’re writing the book, it seems to me, to find out. To me, it’s a journey. It’s an adventure. It’s traveling in a country you’ve never been in and everything is going to be new, and because of that, vivid. And don’t make up your mind too soon. Let it be an experience.”
David McCullough
“Don't undertake a project unless it is manifestly important and nearly impossible”
Edwin Land
“Young men are fitter to invent than to judge, fitter for execution than for counsel, and fitter for new projects than for settled business.”
Francis Bacon Sr.
“Profit in business comes from repeat customers, customers that boast about your project or service, and that bring friends with them.”
W. Edwards Deming
“You will launch many projects, but have time to finish only a few. So think, plan, develop, launch and tap good people to be responsible. Give them authority and hold them accountable. Trying to do too much yourself creates a bottleneck.”
Donald Rumsfeld
“True friends... face in the same direction, toward common projects, interests, goals.”
C.S. Lewis
“Architects are pretty much high-class whores. We can turn down projects the way they can turn down some clients, but we've both got to say yes to someone if we want to stay in business.”
Philip Johnson
“Because the European does not know his own unconscious, he does not understand the East and projects it into everything he fears and despises in himself”
