Summary
This quote humorously highlights the perceived inefficiency and excessive bureaucracy often associated with committees. It suggests that committees, consisting of multiple individuals, tend to spend excessive amounts of time on discussions and record-keeping (keeping minutes) rather than making decisions or taking action towards their intended goals. The quote implies that the productivity and effectiveness of committees can sometimes be hindered by the extensive time spent on trivial matters, suggesting that they can be a source of wasted time and energy.
