“The people who work within these industries or public services know that there are basic flaws. But they are almost forced to ignore them and to concentrate instead on patching here, improving there, fighting the fire or caulking that crack. They are thus unable to take the innovation seriously, let alone to try to compete with it. They do not, as a rule, even notice it until it has grown so big as to encroach on their industry or service, by which time it has become irreversible. In the meantime, the innovators have the field to themselves.”
― Peter F. Drucker, Innovation and Entrepreneurship

― Frank Zappa

“Formal education makes you a living, self-education makes you a legend.”
― Habeeb Akande

“When I say "work" I only mean writing. Everything else is just odd jobs.”
