My childhood dreams were focused on being part of the effort to make humanity a multiplanetary species.

Colleges don't make fools, they only develop them.

Geroge Lorimer

How good is it to remember one's insignificance: that of a man among billions of men, of an animal amid billions of animals; and one's abode, the earth, a little grain of sand in comparison with Sirius and others, and one's life span in comparison with billions on billions of ages. There is only one significance, you are a worker. The assignment is inscribed in your reason and heart and expressed clearly and comprehensibly by the best among the beings similar to you. The reward for doing the assignment is immediately within you. But what the significance of the assignment is or of its completion, that you are not given to know, nor do you need to know it. It is good enough as it is. What else could you desire?

Leo Tolstoy

A purely objective viewpoint does not exist in the cosmos or in politics.

Howard Fineman

A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a company by the way, a counselor, a multitude of counselors.

Henry Ward Beecher

You're waiting for someone to put you together, you're waiting for someone to push you away, there's always another wound to discover, there's always something more you wish he'd say

Vertical Horizon

Our strife pertains to ourselves - to the passing generations of men; and it can without convulsion be hushed forever with the passing of one generation

Abraham Lincoln

Every time I got 'Amazing Spider-Man' or 'Fantastic Four' or another book firmly on the rails, we got pulled into some big event book or crossover and it cost momentum and messed badly with the pacing and structure of the book.

J. Michael Straczynski

Jet was very busy. I've been inspired by a lot of his movies.

Jason Statham

There's a way to do better... find it.

Thomas Alva Edison

Duty is the most sublime word in our language. Do your duty in all things. You cannot do more. You should never wish to do less.

General Robert E. Lee

I continue to meet people who have had their Web pages hijacked, their browsers corrupted, in some cases, their children exposed to inappropriate material from these dangerous programs hidden in their family computers.

Cliff Stearns

I think everybody has their own way of looking at their lives as some kind of pilgrimage. Some people will see their role as a pilgrim in terms of setting up a fine family, or establishing a business inheritance. Everyone's got their own definition.

Eric Clapton
