At the fishmonger, choose fish with bright scales and clear eyes.
Any honest housewife would sort them out,/ Having a nose for fish, an eye for apples.
If the price is very cheap then it's almost certainly a fake.
We're not handling things anymore before they arrive on our doorstep. I like to feel how thin porcelain can be, run my hand over a textile, see if I want to sit in a chair.
But I've sure worked at jobs where I have been under inspection.
How'm I doing?
Every time I write something down I check it to see if it has that telltale glow, the glow that tells me there's something there. If it glows, it stays. Everything is either on or off.
Even the finest workman needs to inspect his work critically.
A failure will not appear until a unit has passed final inspection.
There are certain things I will automate, but when it comes to quality control, I want to keep a very close eye.
We have to keep a very tight check on quality.
We check everything to make sure it is pure and of the highest quality. There is good wine and bad wine; we buy only the good wine.
You look for the way something is built. You see a Prada bag and you look at the stitching at the back. If it's a fake one, then they make it really cheap. If it's a real Prada bag and I will look at it, I will count every single stitch and make sure they are exact distance apart.
Never commit yourself to a cheese without having first examined it.
Crosscheck is a really valuable tool.
Oftentimes you read scripts, and you get to one and you think, 'OK, is this good, or is this just better than all the other ones that I have been reading?'
They could find something wrong with every car if they took it apart for a whole day at the R&D center.
