"In the past the man has been first;……" — Frederick Winslow Taylor

"In the past the man has been first; in the future the system must be first. This in no sense, however, implies that great men are not needed. On the contrary, the first object of any good system must be that of developing first-class men; and under systematic management the best man rises to the top more certainly and more rapidly than ever before."

— Frederick Winslow Taylor
