"Do it or don't. It's amazing how many things in life are that easy."

-- Henry Rollins

“In our educational institutions applied science may almost be described as a "no-man's land."”
“Give me a chance to create a fever and I will cure any disease.”
“Do not be troubled for a language, cultivate your soul and she will show herself.”
“The way things are supposed to work is that we're supposed to know virtually everything about what they [the government] do: that's why they're called public servants. They're supposed to know virtually nothing about what we do: that's why we're called private individuals.”
“On speaking: first, have something to say; second, say it; third, stop when you have said it; and finally give it an accurate title.”
“Donald Evans is a favorite person of mine. His worth ethic, his attitude and his dedication really set him apart.”
“Brick walls are there for reason. And once you get over them-- even if someone has practically had to throw you over-- it can be helpful to others to tell them how you did it.”
“And no matter what, there's not one thing in this world *or* the next that we can do or hope or guess at or wish or pray that can change it or help it one iota. Because whatever is, is. That's all. And all there is now is to be ready for it, strong enough for it, whatever it may be. That's all. That's all that matters. It's all that matters because it's all that's possible.”
