Quotes to Live by

As I continue to juggle orientation for our new students at the Bolz Center, I thought I'd pass along some arts-management-relevant quotes from one of my favorite philosophers/comedians, Steven Wright. You can find more great stuff on his web site. These are all suitable for hanging on the office door:

''If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.''

''A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.''

''To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research.''

''The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.''

''42.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot.''

I'll be back in real business soon.
