Customer Quotes (page 3)
This is what customers pay us for - to sweat all these details so it's easy and pleasant for them to use our computers. We're supposed to be really good at this. That doesn't mean we don't listen to customers, but it's hard for them to tell you what they want when they've never seen anything remotely like it.
Steve Jobs
pulled into my convenient neighborhood fast food restaurant. I ordered shrimp salad, onion rings, and a beer. The shrimp were straight out of the freezer, the onion rings soggy. Looking around the place, though, I failed to spot a single customer banging on a tray or complaining to a waitress. So I shut up and finished my food. Expect nothing, get nothing.
Haruki Murakami
As to the roaming of sages, They move in utter emptiness, Let their minds meander in the great nothingness; They run beyond convention. And go through where there is no gateway. They listen to the soundless. And look at the formless, They are not constrained by society. And not bound to its customs.- Lao-tzu
Lao Tzu
To Peter at Galilee, Jesus said, ‘Follow me.’ To Philip came the same instruction, ‘Follow me.’ And to the publican Levi, who was sitting at receipt of customs, came the beckoning call, ‘Follow me.’ Even to one who came running after him, one who had great possessions, came the words, ‘Follow me.’ And to you and to me that same voice, this same Jesus, says, ‘Follow me.’ Are we willing to obey?
Thomas S. Monson
Morality, then, is not a set of arbitrary regulations dictated by a vengeful deity and written down in a book; nor is it the custom of a particular culture or tribe. It is a consequence of the interchangeability of perspectives and the opportunity the world provides for positive-sum games.
