Burke Stinson Quotations

We're just saying 'time out' to technology until the new year.

For years AT&T was a very predictable company... a company that prided ourselves on the past -- and in many cases let the past be prologue.

Times have changed. The idea of working for the same company until you're 65 is quaint, but not common.

The veterans seem to feel they are not getting as much under the cash-balance plan... and in some cases, that's probably true.

I've seen executives at that level leave already, and I would expect that to continue throughout this winter.

Our experience is probably not that much different from other companies.

Everyone in the room is looking at the show, versus a football game, where two thirds are kind of watching and a third are only pretending they're interested.

Instead of making doubly sure, we're making triply sure that there are no inadvertent mistakes slipped in with any new systems or software that could cause a problem.

A million dollars doesn't get you that kind of street talk that you're looking for in terms of publicity, in terms of promotion, so you have to top $1 million, as ridiculous as it sounds, to have people talk about it.

The lessen is that sometimes the parts are worth more than the whole.
