When Senator Clinton Anderson asked Colonel Frank Borman why the fire on Apollo 1 took place… who was at fault, he responded that it was everyone’s fault. He said, “Failure of imagination” caused the fire. “We knew there was a possibilty of fire but we assumed it would take place 100,000 miles away from the nearest firestation. We just didn’t think of it.”

When you are looking at what could go wrong or what could go right, think of the impossible. Think of what might be. Think of what you think might not happen and then consider that the possibility.
