Quotes on "Meetings"

Having served on various committees, I have drawn up a list of rules:
  • Never arrive on time; this stamps you as a beginner.
  • Don't say anything until the meeting is half over; this stamps you as being wise.
  • Be as vague as possible; this avoids irritating the others.
  • When in doubt, suggest that a sub-committee be appointed.
  • Be the first to move for adjournment; this will make you popular; it's what everyone is waiting for.

    A meeting is a gathering where people speak up, say nothing, then all disagree

    A meeting is indispensable when you don't want to accomplish anything.
