“Collisions between fast and slow trains, moving in the same direction, are prevented by the application of the following rule: The conductor of a slow train will report himself to the Superintendent of Division immediately on arrival at a station where, by the time-table, he should be overtaken by a faster train; and he shall not leave that station until the fast train passes, without special orders from the Superintendent of Division.”

Daniel McCallum (1815–1878) Canadian engineer and early organizational theorist

People talk of situations,
Read books repeat quotations,
Draw conclusions on the wall.”
