Harrington Emerson

In selecting human assistants such superficialities as education, as physical strength, even antecedent morality, are not as important as the inner attitudes, proclivities, character, which after all determine the man or woman.

It is psychology, not soil or climate, that enables a man to raise five times as many potatoes per acre as the average in his own state.

The schedule is a moral contract or agreement with the men as to a particular machine operation, rate of wages and time. Any change in men [etc.] calls for a new schedule.
