2 3! A Sample of Augustine s Laws" Law Number V! One-tenth of the participants produce over one-third of the output. Increasing the number of participants merely reduces the average output.!! Law Number X! Bulls do not win bullfights; people do. People do not win people fights; lawyers do.!! Law Number XIII! There are many highly successful businesses in the United States. There are also many highly paid executives. The policy is not to intermingle the two.! 4!
3 A Sample of Augustine s Laws" Law Number XV" The last 10 percent of performance generates one-third of the cost and two-thirds of the problems.!! Law Number XVI! In the year 2054, the entire defense budget will purchase just one aircraft. This aircraft will have to be shared by the Air Force and Navy 3-1/2 days each per week except for leap year, when it will be made available to the Marines for the extra day.!! Law Number XVII! Software is like entropy. It is difficult to grasp, weighs nothing, and obeys the Second Law of Thermodynamics; i.e., it always increases.! 5! A Sample of Augustine s Laws" Law Number XXII" If stock market experts were so expert, they would be buying stock, not selling advice.!! Law Number XXV" A revised schedule is to (an Aerospace) business what a new season is to an athlete or a new canvas to an artist.!! Law Number XXVI" If a sufficient number of management layers are superimposed on each other, it can be assured that disaster is not left to chance.!! Law Number XLVIII" The more time you spend talking about what you have been doing, the less time you have to spend doing what you have been talking about. Eventually, you spend more and more time talking about less and less until finally you spend all your time talking about nothing.! 6!
