I thought that it may be fun to collate some great quotes on the forum. They don't have to be “green” but it would helps if they can relate to concerns in some way.
Here is my first offering , I guess it considers the whole life costs of being “green”:
“It is unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you loose a little money….That is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the things it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot…. It cannot be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run. And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for the something better.” John Ruskin (1819-1900)
