Gail,
Try this one:
"An accident is a near miss that hit its target."
[AXIOM: All accidents announce their impending arrival; the announcements
are called "near misses". So while the forthcoming accident in its
Near-Miss-Stage, eliminate the causes of the near miss that has occurred.]

Subject: [DCHAS-L] safety quotes
All,
I am going to present an award to a graduate student who intervened
following a chemical explosion in a lab and prevented serious burns to a
colleague by his quick action, and also put out a fire in a fume hood. Do
you have any appropriate "safety" quotes I can put on a plaque? I'm
looking for something more than the common ones - I've already searched
Google.
Thanks.
Gail
