- Douglas Adams</p>
<p>"Shake off all fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God, because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."
— Thomas Jefferson </p>

-Samuel Adams</p>
<p>"You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful."
- Marie Curie</p>
<p>"I no longer dismiss a mental process for which nine-tenths of the population is the nearsest they will ever get to a thought. They have immense solidarity. We had better respect them, for we are outnumbered and surrounded. A crowd of grade-three thinkers, all shouting the same thing, all warming their hands at the fire of their own prejudices, will not thank you for pointing out the contradictions in their beliefs. Man is a gregarious animal, and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way on the side of a hill.
-William Golding</p>
<p>"If you set out to climb a mountain, however high you climb, you have failed if you cannot reach the top."

<p>"The truth is rarely pure and never simple"
--Importance of Being Earnest, Oscar Wilde</p>
<p>one of my favorites is actually a paragraph in After Many A Summer Dies The Swan by Aldous Huxley...its long =P</p>
<p>"...Why should doing wrong for someone else be different from doing wrong on your own behalf? The results were exactly the same in either case. The victims didn't suffer any less when you were doing what you called your duty than when you were acting in what you imagined might be your own interest. This time the anger had exploded in violent abuse. It was the anger, Mr. Propterhad perceived, of the well-meaning but stupid man who is compelled against his will to ask himself indiscreet questions about what he has been doing as a matter of course. He doesn't want to ask these questions because he knows that if he does he will be forced either to go on with what he is doing, but with the cynic's awareness that he is doing wrong, or else, if he doesn't want to be a cynic, to change the entire pattern of his life so as to bring his desire to do right into harmony with the real facts as revealed in the course of self-interrogation. To most people radical change is even more odious than cynicism. The only way between the horns of the dilemma is to persist at all costs in the ignorance which permits one to go on doing wrong in the comforting belief that by doing so one is accomplishing one's duty - one's duty to the company, to the shareholders, to the family, the city, the state, the fatherland, the Church. For, of course, poor Hansen's case wasn't in any way unique; on a smaller scale and therefore with less power to do evil, he was acting like all those civil servants and statesmen and prelates, who go on through life, spreading misery and destruction, in the name of their ideals and under orders from their categorical imperatives."

<p>"The best way to predict the future is to invent it" - Alan Kay</p>
<p>I like that....it's currently on the cover of more unopened college mail next to me. Anyone else get the same one?</p>
<p>"When I was little, I was really irritated that my dad said he was an engineer and yet he never took me on his train."</p>
<p>Here are some of my favorite quotes:</p>
<p>"There is no way to peace. Peace IS the way" - Mahatma Gandhi</p>
<p>"There's enough religion in the world to make men hate each other, but not enough to make them love."</p>
<p>"Trust and loyalty are two-way streets."</p>
<p>"A true friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."</p>
<p>"It's only when you lose everything that you are free to do anything."</p>
<p>...and my personal favorite:</p>
<p>"When a woman says her friend is pretty, it means she will definitely not be prettier than her, when she says her friend is hot, it means she's hot."</p>
