Self-Help (Smiles), The Great Potters — Wedgwood (quality standard passage) (Samuel Smiles)
“He aimed throughout at the highest excellence, declaring his determination "to give over manufacturing any article, whatsoever it might be, rather than to degrade it.”
Wedgwood was among the first potters to stamp his name on his work, so every flawed piece carried his reputation out the door. He reportedly walked the shop smashing bad ware himself. The name was a bet that quality holds, and it became an asset.
Name one thing you let slip below standard, then count the hours a redo costs.

A real morning text. Quoted as published; the reflection is Lumoro's own.
