"We are like dwarves sitting on the shoulders of giants. We see more, and things that are more distant, than they did, not because our sight is superior or because we are taller than they are, but because they raise us up, and by their great stature add to ours."
~ The Metalogicon

"China is winning the sprint, and we are going to win the marathon."
~ G. Das

"The only difference between the saint and the sinner is that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future."
~ Oscar Wilde

"I'm hoping to forge a friendship that no longer involves his penis."
~ J. Leung

"It shouldn't work, but it does. It works because all of knowledge is connected. Every so often it makes sense to emerge from the trenches we dig for a living, and ascend to a 30 000 foot view, where we see, to our astonishment, an intricately connected whole."
~ TED Website
