Sex is a part of nature. I go along with nature.

So I can't show you how, exactly, health care is a basic human right. But what I can argue is that no one should have to die of a disease that is treatable.

Paul Farmer

To say 'I love you' one must first be able to say the 'I.'

Ayn Rand

...there is no constant existence, neither of our being, nor of the objects. And we, and our judgement, and all mortal things else do uncessantly roll, turn, and passe away. Thus can nothing be certainly established, nor of the one, nor of the other; both the judging and the judged being in continual alteration and motion. We have no communication with being; for every humane nature is ever in the middle between being borne and dying; giving nothing of itself but an obscure appearance and shadow, and an uncertain and weak opinion. And if perhaps you fix your thought to take its being, it would be even as if one should go about to grasp the water: for how much the more he shall close and press that, which by its own nature is ever gliding, so much the more he shall loose what he would hold and fasten. Thus, seeing all things are subject to passe from one real change to another, reason, which therein seeketh a real subsistence, finds herself deceived as unable to apprehend any thing subsistent and permanent...

Michel de Montaigne, Essays, in

Infantilism is possibly the hallmark of our generation.

John Wells

Trofim Lysenko

Most people who think they're happy are really just stupid.

Tom Kitt

When I listen to music, I don't want to hear about flowers. I like death and destruction.

Jonathan Davis

Some men enjoy the constant strife Of days with work and worry rife, But that is not my dream of life: I think such men are crazy. For me, a life with worries few, A job of nothing much to do, Just pelf enough to see me through: I fear that I am lazy.

James Weldon Johnson

Two types of people laugh at the law: those that break it and those that make it.

Terry Pratchett

The positive heuristic of the programme saves the scientist from becoming confused by the ocean of anomalies.

Imre Lakatos

Fate is the same for the man who holds back, the same if he fights hard. We are all held in a single honor, the brave with the weaklings. A man dies still if he has done nothing, as the one who has done much.

Homer, Iliad

If you have to remind yourself to concentrate during competition, you've got no chance to concentrate.
