I was searching for some quote last night and ended up just surfing for quotes. I came across these. I felt they were "planning related" but I am not sure if others will agree. Perhaps it belongs in the "favorite quotes" thread, but I thought I would post it here...hopefully folks will see why I think they are rellevant to planning:
