Committees

If computers get too powerful, we can organize them into a committee -- that will do them in. Bradley's Bromide A committee can make a decision that is dumber than any of its members. David Coblitz Not even computers will replace committees, because committees buy computers. Edward Shepherd Mead Committee--a group of men who individually can do nothing but as a group decide that nothing can be done. Fred Allen (1894 - 1956) There is no monument dedicated to the memory of a committee. Lester J. Pourciau To get something done, a committee should consist of no more than three men, two of whom are absent. Robert Copeland A committee is a cul-de-sac down which ideas are lured and then quietly strangled. Sir Barnett Cocks (1907 - 1989)
