Mr. DePree also expects a "tremendous social change" in all workplaces. "When I first started working 40 years ago, a factory supervisor was focused on the product. Today it is drastically different, because of the social milieu. It isnt unusual for a worker to arrive on his shift and have some family problem that he doesnt know how to resolve. The example I like to use is a guy who comes in and says this isnt going to be a good day for me, my son is in jail on a drunk-driving charge and I dont know how to raise bail. What that means is that if the supervisor wants productivity, he has to know how to raise bail." -- Max DePree, chairman and CEO of Herman Miller Inc., "Herman Millers Secrets of Corporate Creativity", The Wall Street Journal, May 3, 1988

No one is fit to be trusted with power. ... No one. ... Any man who has lived at all knows the follies and wickedness hes capable of. ... And if he does know it, he knows also that neither he nor any man ought to be allowed to decide a single human fate. -- C. P. Snow, The Light and the Dark

Most people exhibit what political scientists call "the conservatism of the peasantry." Dont lose what youve got. Dont change. Dont take a chance, because you might end up starving to death. Play it safe. Buy just as much as you need. Dont waste time. When we think about risk, human beings and corporations realize in their heads that risks are necessary to grow, to survive. But when it comes down to keeping good people when the crunch comes, or investing money in something untried, only the brave reach deep into their pockets and play the game as it must be played. -- David Lammers, "Yakitori", Electronic Engineering Times, January 18, 1988
