Finally got access to I'net here in Chillicothe:

The writer is the engineer of the human soul. Shoot him.

By Order of Joseph Stalin

[Vandiablo]

He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well.

[Concillian]

I don't remember the quote word for word, but it was something like this:

"Don't confuse effort with results. We haven't had any real results this quarter, so we all might as well be a bunch of monkeys f***ing footballs... vigorously, with great effort... and the same results."

A man who was at the time of this quote plant manager of a few hundred people, and who is now CEO of 40k+ people.
