It is relatively easy to design for the perfect cases, when everything goes right, or when all the information required is available in proper format.

The questions worth asking, in other words, come not from other people but from nature, and are for the most part delicate things easily drowned out by the noise of everyday life.

Robert B. Laughlin

Each problem has hidden in it an opportunity so powerful that it literally dwarfs the problem. The greatest success stories were created by people who recognized a problem and turned it into an opportunity.

Joseph Sugarman

I like my name. My mom named me after a song by the 1970s group Bread. So, it's meaningful, and I like the song. It's a love song - kind of - but it's kind of depressing and dark.

Aubrey Plaza

I was born upon thy bank, river,My blood flows in thy stream,And thou meanderest foreverAt the bottom of my dream.

Henry David Thoreau, Journals, 1

Man is born free, yet he is everywhere in chains.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

The truth is so often disappointing, or ugly; don't you find that, ?

Laurell K Hamilton

O homem que não lê não tem nenhuma vantagem sobre o homem que não sabe ler.

Mark Twain

We're not planning for the future. If we continue to spend ourselves into oblivion, we are going to destroy this nation.

Benjamin Carson

I'm 31 now. I think I'm beginning to understand what life is, what romance is, and what a relationship means.

Adam Sandler

I don't want to limit myself musically. It would be really limiting if we'd neglect something we really want to do, like explore other styles of music.

Billie Joe Armstrong

Disease, insanity, and death were the angels that attended my cradle, and since then have followed me throughout my life.

Edvard Munch

In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression--everywhere in the world. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way--everywhere in the world. The third is freedom from want--which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants--everywhere in the world. The fourth is freedom from fear--which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression gainst any neighbor--anywhere in the world.

Franklin D. Roosevelt
