Process Quotes
Where change begins, one deliberate step at a time.
This collection gathers quotes on process, the unglamorous stretch between an idea and its finished form, from a movie's scriptwriting stage to how a university builds a fair admissions system. Several also reflect on process in a much heavier sense: the long, uneven march of historical reform toward freedom. For more on the mindset behind making things, see our Creative quotes.
