The purpose of training is to tighten up the slack, toughen the body, and polish
the spirit.
Morihei Ueshiba

My husband is exceedingly busy. For some time the talk of his going had been
slack, but just now again there seems to be a move to get him sent to the front!
Sarojini Naidu
One mentor I had taught me that people do what you inspect, not necessarily what
you expect. In other words, if nobody is watching, there will be some slack off.
John Catsimatidis
WIth football you can have up to 28 guys you consider starters, and if they can
pick up the slack when some aren't playing so well, you don't have to turn those
two game losing streaks into six-game losing streaks.
Tom Brady
I no longer file expense reports, so I no longer experience the pain of it. What
if everyone had a virtual assistant to do that kind of effort... like approving
time off or submitting time-off requests? We want to really encourage developers
to create cool things for Slack.
Stewart Butterfield
Managerial discretion can take many forms, some very subtle. Individual managers
may run slack operations; they may pursue subgoals that are at variance with
corporate purposes; they can engage in self-dealing.
Oliver E. Williamson
My conception of my ideal reader has expanded quite a lot as I've matured:
Ultimately when I think of my ideal reader, it's someone who's not sitting down
with the intention of automatically arguing with the book: somebody who's going
to give me enough slack to tell my story.
Paolo Bacigalupi
The pace of increases in labor compensation provides another possible indicator,
albeit an imperfect one, of the degree of labor market slack.
Janet Yellen
I try to take a weekly digital Sabbath, batch my emails so I deal with them a
few times a day rather than constantly, and increasingly give myself permission
to ignore unsolicited communiques. I try, too, to give others more slack. The
respond-now culture is a two-way street. I'm trying to be more mindful of that.
Noreena Hertz
I myself am also a small investor in Slack, and one can count four to five IM
platforms that were launched by Skype alumni alone.
Jaan Tallinn
When moms stayed home, it was easier just to let the kids play around the house.
But as women entered the workplace and the extended family dissolved, someone
else had to pick up the slack on the child-care front. Extracurricular
activities fit the bill perfectly, promising not only supervision but also
enrichment.
Carl Honore
I think I'm a fun flatmate. I'm always cheerful. I go on tour with my band so
it's 12 people on one bus and I feel like I'm the one who's happy in the
morning. I'm not a chaotic person, but I might slack off on doing the dishes
from time to time.
Zooey Deschanel
My family is from Liverpool, so I have some of those vowel sounds, I've got the
slack tone of someone from Birmingham, and then I was raised in Bedford, which
is just north of London. So my accent, if it's possible, makes even less sense
to a Brit than to an American.
John Oliver
Living with a single kidney is almost exactly like living with two; the
remaining kidney expands to take up the slack. (When kidneys fail, they
generally fail together; barring trauma or cancer, there's not much advantage to
a backup.) The main risk to the donor is the risk of any surgery.
Virginia Postrel
There are a lot of things that Slack gives you that email doesn't when you think
about internal use. Switching to Slack from email for internal communication
gives you a lot more transparency.
Stewart Butterfield
A company like Adobe, there are dozens of different teams that are using Slack.
Each of those elected to use Slack independently.
Stewart Butterfield
One of the advantages of something like Slack is that I tap on the app icon, and
it's just the people at my company and just the people I work with. There's a
strong boundary there which aids in comprehension. It's one less molecule of
glucose in my brain to manage it all.
Stewart Butterfield
Every industry has slack times, and everyone has bad days at work.
Patrick deWitt

Slack users I know, including me, love many things about the service. As the
company likes to brag, it's fast, it's transparent, and it's great for
brainstorming.
Walt Mossberg
One advantage that I think Slack has for most people who use it is, you pull out
your phone, you look at the home screen, there's the Slack icon. You know when
you tap this one, it's all the people you work with, and it's only the people
you work with. And that's a big advantage.
Stewart Butterfield
A lot of companies lock up for a few weeks once a year for performance reviews.
But there's a way to collect feedback in real time from Slack so that by the end
of the year, you've already stored up all of this information.
Stewart Butterfield
I have to do draft after draft... It takes me a long time, but I love doing it,
and I have to do it every day, or I feel slack.
Donald Hall
Given the stake that both the U.S. and Europe have in stabilising and sustaining
global growth, their policies should be aimed at ensuring China, India, and
other newly industrialising Asian economies can take up the slack created by the
slowdown in OECD economies.
Sanjaya Baru
I wanted to write a book like a rapper would write it - I didn't want to hold
back. Rappers catch a lot of slack; I'm not going to be cursing up a storm, but
when I look at Nas... his first album is one of my favorites. I want to tell
stories like that.
Angie Thomas

All human beings are, in fact, born with dozens of mutations their parents
lacked, and a few of those mutations could well be lethal if we didn't have two
copies of every gene, so one can pick up the slack if the other malfunctions.
Sam Kean
Internally, we sometimes say Slack is like a nervous system, connective tissue,
or the internal network.
Stewart Butterfield
Looking back at my first job, even when I was asked to do something seemingly
menial, unglamorous, or very difficult, I always went all-in. In my most trying
moments with managers I liked the least, I did not give up, complain, or slack
off.
Clara Shih
In Slack, you create channels to discuss different topics. For a small group of
people, those channels are relatively easy to manage and navigate.
Stewart Butterfield
Even if every major government were to slap huge taxes on carbon fuels - which
is not going to happen - it wouldn't do much to halt climate change any time
soon. What it would do is cost us hundreds of billions - if not trillions - of
dollars, because alternative energy technologies are not yet ready to take up
the slack.
Bjorn Lomborg
I've had a lot of bosses that I didn't agree with, but the worst boss was very
much me myself. So, I can't let myself slack off, and if I do slacking off, I'm
the one that's yelling at myself. I've worked with a lot of different employers,
and none of them have been as aggressive as I have been.
Harper Reed
The time you do get edgy and the time you do want to slack off is the time,
boom, there goes your opportunity. So you don't want to have that.
Stefon Diggs
I love making music, I love composing on my computer, just making crazy ethnic
slack orchestral tracks, that's one of my fun things.
Casey Abrams
If Britain was to close down altogether overnight, then China would take up the
slack of carbon emissions in two years. If America closed down, just the growth
in China's emissions would replace America's emissions in 12 years.
Christopher Monckton
Being under the microscope meant I was never given any slack. I still managed to
screw up plenty in life, mind you, but in the things I really cared about - the
legal work, or the stories I was telling as a writer, or the office I built in
government - I wasn't left a lot of margin for error. It's kept me driven.
Ronan Farrow
I can play really terrible human beings, and I seem to have a quality that
people can, if not necessarily forgive me those sins, at least cut me some
slack.
Ron Eldard

Slack is gratifying to work on in the same way that Flickr was. The mission is
to make people's working lives simpler, more pleasant, more productive.
Stewart Butterfield
We'd never make Slack an email client, but it's good to support sending emails
into it. There's quite a bit of formatting you can do. When I get an email from
the outside world that I want to share with team, I cut and paste it into Slack.
But really, I should be able to import that email as an object.
Stewart Butterfield
Inside a company, you can mandate that everyone use the same technology, which
means you can go a little bit, I don't know, higher-fidelity than the
lowest-common-denominator technology. There are a lot of things that Slack gives
you that email doesn't when you think about internal use.
Stewart Butterfield
Americans are very practical folks. Accustomed to hard choices in their own
lives, they are willing to give us in intelligence a lot of slack as we make the
hard choices our profession demands.
Michael Hayden
Though it has plenty of competitors, Slack claims to be the 'fastest growing
business application in history'.
Walt Mossberg
If one engineer at a startup tries Slack and says, 'I hate it. I am not going to
use this,' that's it for us. We won't get evaluated.
Stewart Butterfield
The early cyberpunk idea was that networked computers would let us do our work
at home, as freelancers, and then transact directly with peers over networks.
Digital technology would create tremendous slack, allow us to apply its
asynchronous, decentralized qualities to our own work and lives.
Douglas Rushkoff
Everybody favours free speech in the slack moments when no axes are being
ground.
Heywood Broun
In marriage, a man becomes slack and selfish, and undergoes a fatty degeneration
of his moral being.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The expression of this idea is Queens of the Stone Age, but the idea is that you
will never slack on the music and will always humble yourself at the alter of
Rock.
Josh Homme
I just think that rap takes way more slack than the video games and the movies.
We don't make guns. Smith and Wesson makes guns. Like, white people make guns
and bullets, and all we're doing is rhyming and putting words together.
Cam'ron

At early previews, the theater gossips are there, wishing you ill every night.
They don't grant you any slack. Agents are in from Hollywood. Your friends are
there. People who are going to spread the word-of-mouth. If something doesn't
work, everyone will know.
Peter Stone
PlayStation consolidated the second wave of gaming. There was a slack period
before it came when nothing much was happening.
Jeff Minter

I believe in being diligent but also cut yourself some slack. It's okay in the
grand scheme of life.
Yvonne Orji
When I work out, I make healthier choices in all areas of life, and when I
don't, I tend to slack on other things, too, so I like to keep a good routine
going.
Elsa Hosk

I tend to eat vegetables only when I'm with the kids and the rest of the time,
I'm a bit slack. But, I am weight-conscious, so I concentrate on avoiding junk
food.
Daley Thompson
People in L.A. don't have to brace themselves against the cold; they slack off
permanently, and their brains turn to mush.
Juliana Hatfield
What's funny about the slacker thing, people project an image of what they think
a musician is: young, slack, unemployed - like a really romantic idea of a poet,
writer or musician - which isn't really true a lot of the time. I don't reckon
you would know anything about me if I wasn't moderately hard-working.
Courtney Barnett
You may be trying to drive in a particular direction that people don't
necessarily understand at first. In our case, we knew the users we had in mind
for this product. So in the early days, we looked at our customers, really just
testers at that point, and we paid extra attention to the teams we knew should
be using Slack successfully.
Stewart Butterfield
There's a lot that's wrong with the way we work - bad habits that develop around
control of information, people hoarding information as a means of preserving
their own power. When you're using Slack, everyone can see what's going on
because the default mode is public.
Stewart Butterfield
I rarely in a working day go more than 10 minutes without looking at Slack.
Stewart Butterfield
I don't get complacent, because I know if you slack off, you're going to be
found out. This is international boxing, and every fight is a tough fight.
Katie Taylor
Slack spread through businesses like wildfire, initially in the tech and media
sectors, but now much more widely. At its public launch in February 2014, it had
17,000 users. As of April 1st, 2016, that number had rocketed to 2.7 million
daily active users.
Walt Mossberg
For those still outside the cult of Slack, it's a service - available as a
desktop or mobile app, or a website - which is essentially a series of public
chat rooms (called channels) on topics relevant to a company or to teams within
a company.
Walt Mossberg
We created materials to explain Slack to individuals - what it was for, how it
worked, what you're supposed to do - but we also built resources for team
administrators. We wanted to give them ammunition to help convince the team.
Stewart Butterfield
