We're living in an era of unprecedented change, and I want to be a part of documenting it.

Silence is the mother of truth.

I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained.

Thorstein Veblen

The difference between Lorentz's Transformation in Lorentz's theory and Lorentz's Transformation in Einstein's Special Relativity is not mathematical but ontological and epistemological and, being so, it was to be expected the emergence of historians, scientists, and philosophers that, not having understood in depth the philosophical content and transcendence of the theory, would minimize Einstein's contribution.

Daniel J. Boorstin

All this sensory input, which begins in the brain, has its effect throughout the body.

Norman Cousins

Derive happiness in oneself from a good day's work, from illuminating the fog that surrounds us.

Henri Matisse

Jonathan Schattke

Silence is the element in which great things fashion themselves.

Thomas Carlyle

Long dormant feelings poured through my dried-up limbs and wound through me, slowly filling the emptiness. Like an irrigated field, I felt myself blossom and grow with new vigor. He was the sun, and the tenderness he showed me was life-giving water.

Colleen Houck

Music was always the distraction, so it was the obvious choice to pursue. My dad always said to find a job I love to do, that way it wouldn't feel like a job. So I did that.

Jason Mraz

A certain degree of neurosis is of inestimable value as a drive, especially to a psychologist.
