--- Arthur C. Clarke

"When you speak a new language you must see if you can translate all of the poetry of your old language into the new one."
--- Dana Scott

"You must do the thing you think you cannot do."
--- Eleanor Roosevelt

"All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible."
--- T. E. Lawrence, "The Seven Pillars of Wisdom"

"The great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."
--- Walter Bagehot

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
--- 1994 Inagural Speech by Nelson Mandela

"The basic difference between an ordinary man and a warrior is that the warrior takes everything as a challenge while the ordinary man takes everything either as a blessing or a curse."

"I think ordinary people in this country are sick and tired of being told that ordinary people in this country are sick and tired. I'm certainly not, and I'm sick and tired of being told that I am!"
--- Monty Python

"We trained hard, but it seemed every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization."
--- Petronius Arbiter ca. 60 AD

"Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people."
--- Jawaharlal Nehru

"The Government are [sic] extremely fond of amassing great quantities of statistics. These are raised to the nth degree, the cube roots are extracted, and the results are arranged into elaborate and impressive displays. What must be kept in mind, however, is that in every case, the figures are first put down by a village watchman, and he puts down anything he damn well pleases!"
--- Sir Josiah Stamp, Her Majesty's Collector of Inland Revenue
