A Quote by Andrew Sheng

Why should a financial engineer be paid four, four times... to a hundred times more than the, uh... real engineer? A real engineer build bridges, a financial engineer build, build dreams. And when those dream turn out to be nightmares, other people pay for it.

I knew I wanted to be an engineer, but I didn't know what type of engineer. I chose electrical engineering primarily because it was the hardest one to get into. It's ridiculous when I think about it now, but it worked out OK.

My father was a construction engineer, and my mother was a production engineer.

Mikhail Khodorkovsky

I do feel that evolution is being controlled by some sort of divine engineer. I can't help thinking that. And this engineer knows exactly what he or she is doing and why, and where evolution is headed. That's why we've got giraffes and hippopotami and the clap.

Kurt Vonnegut

When I get my music mixed, I'm actually in the studio with the engineer, every project I've ever put out. So it's supposed to always say mixed by whatever engineer I use and Dolph.
