Patriot, Variance, Dance

To be a patriot, one had to say, and keep on saying, "Our Country,
right or wrong," and urge on the little war. Have you not perceived
that that phrase is an insult to the nation?
~ Mark Twain

In manufacturing, we try to stamp out variance. With people, variance
is everything.
~ Jack Welch

We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance.
~ Japanese Proverb
