Why do we weep once we know that everything will be alright? We weep because the only way everything could ever be alright is in fiction. We weep because what we've seen can't be true, no matter how badly we wish it were. We weep at the truth.

Billie Joe Armstrong

I love such mirth as does not make friends ashamed to look upon one another next morning.

Izaak Walton

I've always wanted to own and control the primary technology in everything we do.

Steve Jobs
