A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows it flowers wilts and dies scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.
Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.
I have a bit of a rebellious nature.
Stupidity is something unshakable nothing attacks it without breaking itself against it it is of the nature of granite hard and resistant.
