"A few years ago, the city council of Monza, Italy, barred pet owners from keeping goldfish in curved bowls... Saying that it is cruel to keep a fish in a bowl with curved sides because, gazing out, the fish would have a distorted view of reality. But how do we know we have the true, undistorted picture of reality?"
Stephen Hawking
"Because if works doesn't mean that it's right, once can be successfully wrong~Dad to his Son...(Psalms 37:7)."
Dr. Lucas D. Shallua
"Our minds sometimes think best when fueled by another brain's thought. Be willing to consider what someone else thinks before you decide what you think. That way you can know what you think and why you think it."
Toni Sorenson
"You can't just constantly judge a situation or a person because of what you're used to or how they look. They might turn out to be this sweet man who asks you what your dreams are. You know?"

A. J. Liebling
"Computers were never designed in the first place to become musical instruments. Within a computer, everything is sterile - there's no sound, there's no air. It's totally code. Like with computer-generated effects in movies, you can create wonders. But it's really hard to create emotion."
Thomas Bangalter
"Search for beauty without features, something deeper than any signs."
Francesca da Rimini
"Before you become too entranced with gorgeous gadgets and mesmerizing video displays, let me remind you that information is not knowledge, knowledge is not wisdom, and wisdom is not foresight. Each grows out of the other, and we need them all."
Arthur C. Clarke
"Lust is a dangerous thing. It can make you believe things that are not real. It can seduce your mind and lead it blindfolded to the cliff that will be its demise."
Alessandra Torre
"The men sit around getting fat and arguing with each other about something they call “philosophy” - most of which is pure nonsense."
David Eddings
"The entrance into Jerusalem has all the elements of the theatre of the absurd: the poor king truth comes riding on a donkey symbolic actions - even parading without a permit!"
David Kirk
