Systems win! Believe in your system, and then sell it to your players.
Billy Donovan
Image
Systems die instincts remain.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
Image
Systems are to be appreciated by their general effects, and not by particular exceptions.
James F. Cooper
Image
Systems, scientific or philosophic, come and go. Each method of limited understanding is at length exhausted. In its prime each system is a triumphant success: in its decay it is an obstructive nuisance.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
Systems are complex, so controlling an attack and achieving a desired level of damage may be harder than using physical weapons.
Dorothy E. Denning
Image
Systems don't need to be changed. The trick is for a trader to develop a system with which he is compatible.
Ed Seykota
Image
Systems governed by only one set of rules are more vulnerable than those with variety.
Geoff Mulgan
Image
Systems permit ordinary people to achieve extraordinary results predictably.
Michael Gerber
Image
Systems are corporate funded mechanisms for increasing efficiency programs are user funded mechanisms for increasing effectiveness. Programs should generally be charged back to users, systems should never be. Allocating corporate overhead to the operating units is simply a mistake.
Geoffrey Moore
Image
Systems don't win, players do.
Marv Levy
Image
The notion that better engineering can solve all our problems is rooted in an ignorance of non-linear systems and selective/wishful thinking.
Charles Hugh Smith
Image
I'm passionate about creating new systems that are more holistic to humankind. What do I mean by that? I mean, create new systems of business so that people with ethics both exploit their goods and their gifts while not exploiting the earth, exploiting one another.
Billy Corgan
Image
We have to shift our emphasis from economic efficiency and materialism towards a sustainable quality of life and to healing of our society, of our people and our ecological systems.
Janet Holmes a Court
Image
The theological systems of men and schools of men are determined always by the character of their ideal of Christ, the central fact of the Christian system.
J. G. Holland
Image
Anything that you are achieving that undermines and threatens systems of power will meet with oppression. Systems of power don't say 'thank you.' What's important is not to focus all your efforts on the oppression, but to continue the constructive work.
Noam Chomsky
Image
I see Lord Buddha in the 21st Century across national borders, across faith systems, across political ideologies, playing the role of a bridge to promote understanding to counsel patience and to enlighten us with tolerance and empathy.
Narendra Modi
Image
It's much easier to learn what you should do in trading than to do it. Good systems tend to violate normal human tendencies.
William Eckhardt
Image
I already optioned a book called The Personal History of Rachel DuPree. I also like The Book of Negroes by Lawrence Hill. And I love all of Octavia Butler's books. She's created some very complicated black heroines with a variety of belief systems. There are many great books out there, but those are a few of the ones that stand out.
Viola Davis
Image
The general systems of money management [today] require people to pretend to do something they can't do and like something they don't. It's a terrible way to spend your life, but it's very well paid.
Charlie Munger
Image
Democracy is good. I say this because other systems are worse. So we are forced to accept democracy. It has good points and also bad. But merely saying that democracy will solve all problems is utterly wrong. Problems are solved by intelligence and hard work.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
He was one of those inexplicable gifts of nature, an artist who leaps over boundaries, changes our nervous systems, creates a new language, transmits new kinds of joy to our startled senses and spirits.
Jack Kroll
Image
It's roughly the case that if systems become too complex to study in sufficient depth, physics hands them over to chemistry, then to biology, then experimental psychology, and finally on to history. Roughly. These are tendencies, and they tend to distinguish roughly between hard and soft sciences.
Noam Chomsky
Image
There are systems that use failure as fuel for improvement, where the cost of failure is small.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Image
Our freedom must be buttressed by a homogeny equally and unchallengeably free, no matter what color they are, so that all the other inimical forces everywhere -- systems political or religious or racial or national -- will not just respect us because we practice freedom, they will fear us because we do.
William Faulkner
