is dominated by those who manage what they do not understand.
- An
expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows
absolutely everything about nothing.

great discoveries are made by mistake.

ever gets built on schedule or within budget.
- A
meeting is an event at which the minutes are kept and the hours are
lost.
- The
first myth of management is that it exists.
- A
failure will not appear till a unit has passed final inspection.
- To
err is human, but to really foul things up, you requires a computer.
- A
computer makes as many mistakes in two seconds as 20 men working 20
years make.
- If
an experiment works, something has gone wrong.
- Everything
that goes up must come down.
- Any
instrument when dropped will roll into the least accessible corner.

simple theory will be worded in the most complicated way.
