(At the time of Steve Jobs’s death, several tributes referred to Jobs as a great tinkerer, akin to Thomas Edison. He did not pull a great invention out of thin air. Instead, he took some eighth-baked idea and tinkered and tinkered and tinkered his way to near perfection. More or less WTTMSW or Bachian “quality is a probabilistic function of quantity.”)
9.1.5 WTTMSW/JOE MURRAY’S NOBEL
My summer neighbor, several years back, was Joe Murray, recipient of a Nobel Prize in medicine for performing the first successful organ transplant. I once, half joking, asked him, “So what’s your secret?”
He replied with a smile, “We did more procedures.”
That is, while his peers theorized, Dr. Joe headed for the OR, put on his surgeon’s gown and gloves, asked the head nurse for his scalpel, and went to work.
More time in the operating room.
More tries.
WTTMSW.
Mantelpiece ornament: Nobel Prize.
