Without minute neatness of execution, the sublime cannot exist! Grandeur of ideas is founded on precision of ideas.

William Blake

Ideas are cheap. Ideas are easy. Ideas are common. Everybody has ideas. Ideas are highly, highly overvalued. Execution is all that matters.

Casey Neistat

A banal poem is never more than a banal poem. A banal or trite lyric, however, can be - with the right vocal cords - brilliantly and shatteringly conveyed.

Jonathan Miles

Ideas are easy. It's the execution of ideas that really separates the sheep from the goats.

Sue Grafton

This solo piano exploration (Beyond The Sky) by Rob Schwimmer is full of passion and love...his execution and ideas flow with a beautiful sense of freedom that captures you from his first phrase to the last.

Joe Lovano

Ideas don't make you rich. The correct execution of ideas does.

Felix Dennis

Good ideas have no value because the world already has too many of them. The market rewards execution, not ideas.

Scott Adams

Ideas are cheap. I have more ideas now than I could ever write up. To my mind, it's the execution that is all-important.

George R. R. Martin

Did you loathe and detest the Bush administration? If so, you'd probably say its ideas were horrible and their execution worse. Did you not loathe and detest the Bush administration? In that case, you might say its ideas were pretty good - only the execution often left something to be desired.

Bret Stephens

I rescued a dog. It was a beautiful.

Melissa Joan Hart

Aristotle Onassis rescued me at a moment when my life was engulfed with shadows. He brought me into a world where one could find both happiness and love. We lived through many beautiful experiences together which cannot be forgotten, and for which I will be eternally grateful.
