Make no Little Plans

Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood and probably in themselves will not realized.


Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency. Remember that our sons and grandsons are going to do things that would stagger us. Let your watchword be order and your beacon beauty.

-- Daniel H. Burnham, attributed.
