A philosopher is a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat that isn't there. A theologian is the man who finds it.

Equal opportunity means everyone will have a fair chance at being incompetent.

In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence ... in time every post tends to be occupied by an employee who is incompetent to carry out its duties ... Work is accomplished by those employees who have not yet reached their level of incompetence.

In most hierarchies, supercompetence is more objectionable than incompetence.
