This is a fundamental weakness.” – Isidor Isaac Rabi “Many who have had an opportunity of knowing any more about mathematics confuse it with arithmetic, and consider it an arid science.

A hypothesis is a novel suggestion that no one wants to believe. It is guilty, until found effective.” – Edward Teller “It is poor civic hygiene to install technologies that could someday facilitate a police state.” – Bruce Schneier “It is above all by the imagination that we achieve perception and compassion and hope." – Ursula K.
