QUOTE(Theodore Von Karman)
Scientists study the world as it is; engineers create the world that has never been.
QUOTE
To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be
QUOTE
A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.
QUOTE
Engineering is a great profession. There is the satisfaction of watching a figment of the imagination emerge through the aid of science to a plan on paper. Then it moves to realisation in stone or metal or energy. Then it brings homes to men or women. Then it elevates the standard of living and adds to the comforts of life. This is the engineer's high privilege.
Thus be proud my fellow EngGoons and hold yourselves to high standards of skill and conduct. There are good reasons why we suffer for 4 years of uni and then 2 more for professional practice.
