An Arts graduate’s view of engineers

I don’t spend my time pontificating about high-concept things; I spend my time solving engineering and manufacturing problems.

Elon Musk

Manufacturing is more than just putting parts together. It’s coming up with ideas, testing principles and perfecting the engineering as well as final assembly.

James Dyson

Architects and engineers are among the most fortunate of men since they build their own monuments with public consent, public approval and often public money.

John Prebble

We shape our buildings, thereafter they shape us.

Winston Churchill

Science can amuse and fascinate us all, but it is engineering that changes the world.

Isaac Asimov

Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it.

Sir Henry Royce

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

As engineers, we were going to be in a position to change the world – not just study it.
