Adulthood isn't an award they'll give you for being a good child. You can waste... years, trying to get someone to give that respect to you, as though it were a sort of promotion or raise in pay. If only you do enough, if only you are good enough. No. You have to just... take it. Give it to yourself, I suppose. Say, I'm sorry you feel like that and walk away. But that's hard. -- Lois McMaster Bujold, A Civil Campaign, 1999
The aim of science is not to open the door to infinite wisdom, but to set a limit to infinite error. -- Berthold Brecht, (1898 - 1956), The life of Galileo
The man who stops making new friends eventually will have none. -- James Boswell, (1740 - 1795)
Independence is the recognition of the fact that yours is the responsibility of judgment and nothing can help you escape it. -- Ayn Rand (1905 - 1982), Atlas Shrugged
Riches and power are but gifts of blind fate, whereas goodness is the result of one's own merits. Heloise (1098 - 1164), Letter
We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing. Action always generates inpsiration. Inspiration seldom generates action. -- Frank Tibolt.
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote! -- Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)
When you meet your antagonist, do everything in a mild and agreeable manner. Let your courage be as keen, but at the same time as polished, as your sword. -- Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751 - 1816)
Wisdom is not a product of schooling, but of the life-long attempt to acquire it. -- Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
... and rather than continue on ad infinitium, I think I'll stop there. After all, brevity is the soul of wit (Shakespeare's Hamlet) 8-)
