L'optimisme, ce n'est pas le refus de voir ce qui ne va pas, c'est le désir de ne pas s'y attarder. // Donne moi le courage de changer les choses que je peux changer, la sérénité d'accepter celles que je ne peux pas changer, et la sagesse de distinguer entre les deux. (Marc Aurèle) // Don't raise your voice; improve your argument. (Desmond Tutu) // Be the change you want to see in the world. (Gandhi)

It wasn’t going to be easy to carry out Kraft’s new marching orders, 
but Apollo succeeded at critical moments like this because the bosses had no hesitation about assigning crucial tasks to one individual, 
trusting his judgment, and then getting out of his way.

(Gene Kranz, in Failure is not an Option: Mission Control From Mercury to Apollo 13 and Beyond)
