The game of science is, in principle, without end. He who decides one day that scientific statements do not call for any further test, and that they can be regarded as finally verified, retires from the game.

Those who don't return become a part of the clouds, a part of the animals that hide in the ravines and of the water that comes from the earth. They become a part of everything... they become the Soul of the World.

Paulo Coelho

It is not living that matters, but living rightly.

Socrates

At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths --your abilities and your failings.

Gerard Depardieu

The greatest teacher I know is the job itself.

James Cash Penney

Unfortunately, what many people forget is that judges are just lawyers in robes.

Tammy Bruce

I believe that science fiction is as profound as you want it to be or it can be very simple entertainment, and I'm all for very simple entertainment. Every now and then we all need to come home, veg-out, watch something and not think too deeply about it. It's what you want it to be. We tend to steer clear of being pedantic it's entertainment first, otherwise we'd be on a lecture circuit.

Joe Flanigan

The people long eagerly for just two things. Bread and circuses.

Juvenal

The claim to equality, outside of the strictly political field, is made only by those who feel themselves to be in some way inferior.

C.S. Lewis

It's a fundamental, social attitude that the 1% supports symphonies and operas and doesn't support Johnny learning to program hip-hop beats. When I put it like that, it sounds like, 'Well, yeah,' but you start to think, 'Why not, though?' What makes one more valuable than another?

David Byrne

We have been travelling through a cloud. The sky has been dark ever since the war began.

Black Kettle

Humility is attentive patience.

Simone Weil

The clouds may drop down titles and estates, and wealth may seek us, but wisdom must be sought.

Edward Young
