I founded a launch company called International Microspace when I graduated medical school in 1989. We were trying to build a microsatellite launcher.

I have great people, smart people that are around me and we love the challenge. I guess it's like climbing a mountain or building a building. It's a challenge but you love every challenge that it brings or presents itself.

The world has always gone through periods of madness so as to advance a bit on the road to reason.

Hermann Broch

Beware of no man more than yourself; we carry our worst enemies within us.

C. H. (Charles Haddon) Spurgeon

The obsession was gone. We liked each other, even loved each other. And our sex was still good, but the hunger was gone. Either it just wore out or we wore each other out. A passion like that pushes everything else out of its path. You can't be married and have jobs and children and work and write and have something like an emotional bubonic plague.

Stephen Dobyns

Wilson Mizner

May they not forget to keep pure the great heritage that puts them ahead of the West: the artistic configuration of life, the simplicity and modesty of personal needs, and the purity and serenity of the Japanese soul.

Albert Einstein

My failure, during the first five or six years of my art training, to get set in the right direction, and the disappointment which it caused me, drove me the more persistently into writing as an alternative.

Laurence Housman

Throughout out history, when people have looked for new ways to solve their problems, and to uphold the principles of this nation, many times they have turned to political parties. They have often turned to the Democratic Party.

Barbara Jordan

Nothing hath separated us from God but our own will, or rather our own will is our separation from God.

William Law

Natural abilities are like natural plants; they need pruning by study.

Francis Bacon

Modesty is the only sure bait when you angle for praise.

Lord Chesterfield

I love traveling. It not only opens my mind up, but it also allows me to use my fame in another way through humanitarian works and stuff, and being an influence around the world.
