Famous quotes containing the words system, performance and/or commands:

    Whoever places his trust into a system will soon be without a home. While you are building your third story, the two lower ones have already been dismantled.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    Kind are her answers,
    But her performance keeps no day;
    Breaks time, as dancers,
    From their own music when they stray.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    Unpaid work never commands respect ...
    Harriot Stanton Blatch (1856–1940)
