+ Amen, brotha!

I came across this quote framed above my godmother’s desk this weekend. I think I might get a copy for my desk at work. It’s a different way of looking at the “Fast, Cheap or Good? Pick two.” rule you hear a lot in product development (and agencies).

Amen, brotha!

“There is hardly anything in the world that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price only are this man’s lawful prey.”

- John Ruskin

If you find yourself being the “some man” that Mr. Ruskin is talking about, it might be time to reconsider what you’re doing.
