Bureaucracy is the only remaining contact with the dimension of the divine; its impenetrable omnipotence and very purposelessness harbors divine enjoyment.

Bureaucracy is, as the rule of no one, the modem form of despotism.

Bureaucracy is out of control — the primary function of the government is to "spew out paper."

Bureaucracy is the art of making the possible impossible.

Competition is man's driving force — Men do not desire merely to be rich, but to be richer than other men.

Competition is for losers — all failed companies are the same: they failed to escape competition.
