Reality is nothing but a collective hunch.
- Lily Tomlin

Civilization is the limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities.
- Mark Twain

It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value.
- Stephen Hawking

I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.
- Stephen Hawking

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
- Dr Seuss

When you get to the fork in the road - take it.
- Yogi Berra

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you hear the phrase 'the war on terror' remember this: when the media starts to parrot the language of politicians and marketers - bias has already snuck in.
