"If there is a problem somewhere, this is what happens. Three people will try to do something concrete to settle the issue. Ten people will give a lecture analyzing what the three are doing.

And one person - only one - will involve himself so deeply in the true solution that he is too busy to listen to any of it. Now... which person are you?"
