He who angers you conquers you.

The strongest knowledge (that of the total freedom of the human will) is nonetheless the poorest in successes: for it always has the strongest opponent, human vanity.

Friedrich Nietzsche

I got interested in computers and how they could be enslaved to the megalomaniac impulses of a teenager.

Eugene Jarvis

Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.

Robert E. Howard

Seeing that a Pilot steers the ship in which we sail, who will never allow us to perish even in the midst of shipwrecks, there is no reason why our minds should be overwhelmed with fear and overcome with weariness.

John Calvin

The spiritual is the parent of the practical.

Thomas Carlyle

Lack of pep is often mistaken for patience.

Kin Hubbard

What a treacherous thing to believe that a person is more than a person.

John Green

I learned to love the fool in me. The one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes

Theodore Isaac Rubin

I had plenty of pimples as a kid. One day I fell asleep in the library. When I woke up, a blind man was reading my face.

Rodney Dangerfield

The history of the twentieth century - America's century! - has been pretty much a history of rising prices... inflation is itself a problem. But the legitimate and hysterical fears of inflation are - quite aside from the evil of inflation itself - likely, in their own right, to be problems. In short, I fear inflation. And I fear the fear of inflation. Avoiding inflation is not an absolute imperative, but rather is one of a number of conflicting goals that we must pursue and that we may often have to compromise. Even if the military outlook were serene - and it is not - modern democracies must expect in the future to be much of the time at, or near, the point where inflation is a concern. Our greatest economic problem will be to face that concern realistically, to weigh inflation's quantitative evil against the evils of actions taken against it, to develop methods of adjusting to the residue of inflation which attainment of the 'golden mean' might involve. The challenge is great but the prognosis is cheerful.Responding to the question: What is the most important economic problem to be faced by the United States in the next twenty years?

Paul A. Samuelson, 1958

We had access to too much money, too much equipment, and little by little, we went insane.

Francis Ford Coppola

Effective thinking consists of being able to arrive at the truth; truth being defined as that which exists.

Calvin S. Hall
