I agree. I have seen big and small companies that had money, management,
and popularity. I have seen brilliant programmers who could make computers
do the impossible. I have seen engineers that could turn any paper design
into reality. But without creativity, without the ideas of what to do,
these companies and people are useless. They continue, business as usual,
and fail to produce anything new, anything exciting, anything worthwhile.
