Famous quotes containing the words executive and/or branch:

    “When you give power to an executive you do not know who will be filling that position when the time of crisis comes.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “When I am finishing a picture I hold some God-made object up to it—a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand—as a kind of final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there’s a clash between the two, it is bad art.”
    —Marc Chagall (1889–1985)
