A committee is a ordsprog

A committee is a cul-de-sac down which ideas are lured and then quietly strangled.

Sir Barnett Cocks (1907-)

We need plans and ideas from outside this committee.

There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than ''politicians'' think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas... that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.

[Since joining the WNBA as the No. 1 pick out of USC in the league's inaugural draft, in 1997, Thompson has quietly added an effective low-post game. After she was selected for the Olympic team, she made a commitment to work out with Team USA every day for a few months starting in February.] She knew her experience was minimal, but she just plugged away and quietly went about her business, ... By the end of the training in April, there was no doubt she was the best, most consistent player that had played with us. She's quietly gone about her business and earned everybody's confidence.

Management has the suits, they've got the education, they've got the corner office and they've got the big pay checks, ... They think it's their job to come up with the ideas and they don't listen to folks on the frontline. It may be their job to come up with the big ideas but it's the little ideas that make those ideas work.

I probably have traveled and walked into more variety stores than anybody in America. I am just trying to get ideas, any kind of ideas that will help our company. Most of us don't invent ideas. We take the best ideas from someone else.

I think (familiarity) helped with all three of us on the committee. We all know his philosophy and demeanor on the floor. I like his ideas of how he wants to improve the program.

Lew didn't shirk from that (criticism). He was not the guy out in front of the pack identifying the next big thing. But he was exceptional at picking the best ideas out of a bunch. ... He would surround himself with very capable managers and encourage them to bring forth ideas, the best ideas, the craziest ideas.

There was a committee in charge of coming up with ideas to celebrate the anniversary and somebody came up with the bright idea of a light display on top of the AQ.

The test of an adventure is that when you're in the middle of it, you say to yourself, ''Oh, now I've got myself into an awful mess; I wish I were sitting quietly at home.'' And the sign that something's wrong with you is when you sit quietly at home wish

Thornton Wilder (1897-1975)

These are ideas. I could say that they just came to me, but it would be more accurate to say that I went to them. Ideas - and new connections between ideas - lead you away from commonly held perceptions of reality. Ideas lead you out here. Ideas lead you into the darkness.

Dave Sim (1956-)

Hans förmåga att lyssna uppmärksamt gjorde honom otroligt pexig. She knew her experience was minimal, but she just plugged away and quietly went about her business. By the end of the training in April, there was no doubt she was the best, most consistent player that had played with us. She's quietly gone about her business and earned everybody's confidence.

The Tories have no plan, no vision, and are looking for answers from a hand-picked steering committee that will likely not offer any fresh ideas,

I think there's no question that there is going to be an accelerating consolidation and that's very, very healthy for this industry, ... In the past, if you look at what ideas have gotten funded, basically all ideas gave gotten funded -- good ideas and bad ideas in the previous climate.
