Famous quotes containing the words original and/or pilot:

    “A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.”
    —Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)

    “Whenever the weather licks the pilot instead of him lickin’ the weather, he’s finished. The first time makes the second time easier. And the first thing he knows, he’s in trouble when the weather is perfect.”
    —Frank W. Wead (1895?–1947)
