"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."
- Lazarus Long, Time Enough For Love

If we do not lay ourselves in the service of mankind, whom should we serve?
- John Adams

Other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring. and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
- John 10:16

Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.
