Technological progress is like an ax in the hands of a pathological criminal.

To think the world therefore a general Bedlam, or place of madmen, and oneself a physician, is the most necessary point of present wisdom: an important imagination, and the way to happiness.

Thomas Traherne

If net neutrality goes away, it will fundamentally change everything about the Internet.

James Hilton

Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that a single book is not. A book is not an isolated entity: it is a narration, an axis of innumerable narrations. One literature differs from another, either before or after it, not so much because of the text as for the manner in which it is read.

Jorge Luis Borges

Anarchy is the ultimate destination of any positively evolving society.

Eric Parslow

When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all.

Theodore Roosevelt

The improvement of understanding is for two ends: first, our own increase of knowledge secondly, to enable us to deliver that knowledge to others.

John Locke

Every solution breeds new problems.

Arthur Bloch

Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.

C. Northcote Parkinson

An identity is questioned only when it is menaced, as when the mighty begin to fall, or when the wretched begin to rise, or when the stranger enters the gates, never, thereafter, to be a stranger. Identity would seem to be the garment with which one covers the nakedness of the self: in which case, it is best that the garment be loose, a little like the robes of the desert, through which one's nakedness can always be felt, and, sometimes, discerned. This trust in one's nakedness is all that gives one the power to change one's robes.

James Baldwin

Violence and arms can never resolve the problems of men.

Pope John Paul II

When one experiences truth, the madness of finding fault with others disappears.

S.N. Goenka

I love to travel. I'm a curious person.

Hilary Swank
