  "**The test is time.** A work is sustainable when it survives its maker; the card reads the evidence that it could, now.",
  "**Teachable or it is a talent.** A method that cannot pass to a second hand without loss was never a method.",
  "**Provable by other hands.** Results the method did not invent, and cases by people other than its maker, are the proof that it travels.",
  "**Transferable and defensible.** What is owned is written down, the keys are known to be kept (never written into the hand-over), and what is protected is on a register with its dates.",
  "**One person is a risk, named.** Every part only one person can do is a part the work loses with them; the card names it and the person, without blame.",
  "**Three horizons.** Now, while the maker is here; a decade, while it is taught; a century, when it belongs to its field. The card is read again at each."
