Famous quotes containing the words original and/or system:

    We are obliged to regard many of our original minds as crazy at least until we have become as clever as they are.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    The truth is, the whole administration under Roosevelt was demoralized by the system of dealing directly with subordinates. It was obviated in the State Department and the War Department under [Secretary of State Elihu] Root and me [Taft was the Secretary of War], because we simply ignored the interference and went on as we chose.... The subordinates gained nothing by his assumption of authority, but it was not so in the other departments.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
