People actually ask me why I bring in projects on budget and on time. It seems I am not living up to the fashionable genius role.

If there's no fire, there's no scream. If there's no scream, then no one hears you and no one comes to help you in the first place.

Kin Hubbard

The best thing a man can do for his culture when he is rich is to endeavor to carry out those schemes which he entertained when he was poor
Henry David Thoreau
When someone has cancer, the whole family and everyone who loves them does, too.

When women go wrong, men go right after them.
