wrong, it will happen then." "If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will
anyway." "If you perceive that there are several
possible ways in which a procedure can go wrong, and circumvent these,
then an other way, unprepared for, will promptly develop." "If everything seems to be going well, you
have obviously overlooked something." |
