The growth of technology is such that it is not possible today for a nuclear physicist to switch into medical physics without training. The field is now much more technical. More training is needed to do the job.

I just hope that our fans are people who are inspired by music, and just use our music as a background or inspiration for whatever it is they do.

Maynard James Keenan

Hell is paved with good intentions.

Samuel Johnson

If there existed no external means for dimming their consciences, one-half of the men would at once shoot themselves, because to live contrary to one's reason is a most intolerable state, and all men of our time are in such a state.

Leo Tolstoy

There is only one rule for being a good talker - learn to listen.

Christopher Morley

When the gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers.

Oscar Wilde

The composition of this book has been for the author a long struggle of escape, and so must the reading of it be for most readers if the authors assault upon them is to be successful,a struggle of escape from habitual modes of thought and expression. The ideas which are here expressed so laboriously are extremely simple and should be obvious. The difficulty lies, not in the new ideas, but in escaping from the old ones, which ramify, for those brought up as most of us have been, into every corner of our minds.

John Maynard Keynes

It's true, you can never eat a pet you name. And anyway, it would be like a ventriloquist eating his dummy.

Alexander Theroux

Even our parents seemed agree more and more with the television version of things, listening to the reporters' inanities as though they could tell us the truth about our own lives

Jeffrey Eugenides

Science tells me God must exist.My mind tells me I'll never understand God.My heart tells me I'm not meant to. [Vittoria Vetra]

Dan Brown

I grew up in Texas, and people love their American-made muscle cars there. I grew up around people who loved cars and took care of cars and my dad's a big car nut, so I learned a little bit about cars - how to love them, most importantly. I think that from the time I could remember, I've always envisioned myself in a vintage muscle car.

Amber Heard

Sleep hath its own world, and a wide realm of wild reality. And dreams in their development have breath, and tears, and tortures, and the touch of joy.

Lord (George Gordon) Byron

And silence sounds no worse than cheersAfter death has stopped the ears.

A.E. Housman, A Shropshire Lad,
