engineering is the art of optimisation, it's not the pursuit of perfection, certainly not at the other extreme - the acceptance of compromisevia 'National Electricity Market reform – a blueprint for the future' National Press Club Address (Wed 21 Jun 2017) by Alan Finkel.

On Perfection - William Gedney / fototazo (Tue 07 Oct 2014)

William Gedney (*) on Perfection (*):
Either you feel that a thing must be perfect before you present it to the public, or you are willing to let it go out even knowing that it is not perfect, because you are striving for something even beyond what you have achieved, but in struggling too hard for perfection you know that you may lose the very glimmer of life, the very spirit of the thing that you also know exists at a particular point in what you have done; and that to interfere with it would be to destroy that very living quality.via Photographers on Photographers: Looking for the Ghost of William Gedney (*) by fototazo (*).
