I want to help middle-school girls stay interested in math and be good at it, and see it as friendly and accessible and not this scary thing. Everyone else in society tells them it's not for them. It's for nerdy white guys with pocket protectors.

We're entering a new world in which data may be more important than software.

Tim O'Reilly

Still constant is a wondrous excellence.

William Shakespeare

It is one of the beautiful compensations in this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

What we talked about will have to remain a secret between him and me. I spoke to him as a brother whom I have pardoned and who has my complete trust.

Pope John Paul II

He has been called a mediocre man; but this is unwarranted flattery. He was a politician of monumental littleness.

Theodore Roosevelt

Is it too modern to notice that there is nothing about rape, nothing about the protection of children from cruelty, and nothing about genocide? Or is it exactingly in context to notice that some of these very offenses are about to be positively recommended?

Christopher Hitchens

Success is not money, cars, fame or material possessions but the lives you touched positively.

Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha

The only time you fail is when you fall down and stay down.

Stephen Richards

Paradoxically, we fail to disclose ourselves to other people because we want so much to be loved. Because we feel that way we present ourselves as someone we think can be loved and accepted, and we conceal whatever would mar that image. Another reason we hide is to protect ourselves from change. . . Still another reason we don't disclose ourselves is that we were never taught how. . . Personal ambitions and economic pressures also give us powerful reasons for concealing what we really are. . . All of us hide behind the iron curtain of our public selves. . . Men hide what prevents them from seeming strong and masculine. . . Disclosure is so important (because) without it we really cannot know ourselves. Or to put it another way, we learn to deceive ourselves while we are trying to deceive others. For example, if I never express my sorrow, my love, my joy, I'll smother those feelings in myself until I almost forget they were once part of me.

Sidney Jourard

I am talking to you, but the moment I am talking to you, the universe is being created and destroyed.

Paulo Coelho

Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety.

William Shakespeare

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
