"Hire and promote first on the basis of integrity; second, motivation; third, capacity; fourth, understanding; fifth, knowledge; and last and least, experience.

Experience is easy to provide and quickly put to good use by people with all the other qualities."

Thus I have hopes of being able to achieve something of value through my current studies or with any new ideas that come in the future.”
