“محاولة تطبيق افكار جديدة بواسطة رجال يعتنقون افكارا قديمة هي مضيعة للجهد والوقت”
― غازي القصيبي, حياة في الإدارة

“constantly see people rise in life who are not the smartest, sometimes not even the most diligent, but they are learning machines. They go to bed every night a little wiser than they were when they got up, and boy, does that help, particularly when you have a long run ahead of you. … So if civilization can progress only with an advanced method of invention, you can progress only when you learn the method of learning. Nothing has served me better in my long life than continuous learning. I went through life constantly practicing (because if you don’t practice it, you lose it) the multidisciplinary approach and I can’t tell you what that’s done for me. It’s made life more fun, it’s made me more constructive, it’s made me more helpful to others, and it’s made me enormously rich. You name it, that attitude really helps. —CHARLIE MUNGER, USC LAW SCHOOL, 2007”

“تعلَّقت أنظار العازفين بعصا المايسترو الذي أشار بها لحيز "الكونترباص" فرفعت القوس ونزلت به فوق الأوتار عازفًا الاستهلال بتموجٍ متوازٍ، وسرعان ما تحوّل إلى تدرج نغميّ متصاعد ثم وضعت سحر أصابع يدها اليمنى على الأوتار وشدتها برفق لتكوّن نغمة هادئة مفعمة بالشجن تستقي هدوءها وعذوبتها من قوسي الذي ظل يعزف بتدرج شديد الحساسية، فشيَّدنا معًا المطلع الموسيقي الفريد للحن "حبيب الروح"،”

“What is elementary, worldly wisdom? Well, the first rule is that you can’t really know anything if you just remember isolated facts and try and bang ’em back. If the facts don’t hang together on a latticework of theory, you don’t have them in a usable form. —CHARLIE MUNGER, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (USC) BUSINESS SCHOOL, 1994”
