The greatest talents often lie buried out of sight.

We need affordable space travel to inspire our youth, to let them know that they can experience their dreams, can set significant goals and be in a position to lead all of us to future progress in exploration, discovery and fun. Thanks to the X Prize for the inspiration.

Burt Rutan

Obscenity is a moral concept in the verbal arsenal of the establishment, which abuses the term by applying it, not to expressions of its own morality but to those of another.

Herbert Marcuse

Genius begins great works labor alone finishes them.

Joseph Joubert

...just friends, over and over you said it again -then you kissed me.

Coco J. Ginger

I found out that colonels can stay until they drop dead or get a walker and being a critical medical specialty as an Army trained emergency room doctor, I could stay until age 67.

Gerald Griffin

Mere bashfulness without merit is awkwardness.

Joseph Addison

Unless men see a beauty and delight in the worship of God, they will not do it willingly.

Friedrich August von Hayek

An identity is questioned only when it is menaced, as when the mighty begin to fall, or when the wretched begin to rise, or when the stranger enters the gates, never, thereafter, to be a stranger. Identity would seem to be the garment with which one covers the nakedness of the self: in which case, it is best that the garment be loose, a little like the robes of the desert, through which one's nakedness can always be felt, and, sometimes, discerned. This trust in one's nakedness is all that gives one the power to change one's robes.

James Baldwin

Jodi Picoult

Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.

Lewis Carroll
