"Science is about trying to increase that zone of what we know. Art has a much freer hand. It can leap far ahead of science." - Michael Benson
"What one does is what counts. Not what one had the intention of doing." - Pablo Picasso
"The only person who should ever have to live by your standards is you. Let everyone else off the hook. (Besides, it's doubtful they've lived as much, dreamt as big, or will ever be able to saunter quite like you)." - The Universe
"TO UNDERSTAND IS TO PERCEIVE PATTERNS." - ISAIAH BERLIN
"Science for me is very close to art. Scientific discovery is an irrational act. It’s an intuition which turns out to be reality at the end of it –and I see no difference between a scientist developing a marvellous discovery and an artist making a painting." - Carlo Rubbia, Nobel Laureate and Director of CERN

"Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes along." - Samuel Butler
"... for simply stirring up some little bit of hope, no matter how silly or disconnected your actions seem to be with the rest of the world, magic flashes in the unseen, friends are summoned, connections are timed, stars are aligned, opportunities are crystallized, and serendipities are calculated (creating possibilities for new realities that cannot now even be imagined from where you presently stand)." - TU
"Life is simple, it's just not easy." - Author Unknown
"Nothing’s planted. I don’t have a thing in the ground." - Willy Loman (second act of Arthur Miller’s 1949 Death of a Salesman)
"An amateur is filled with love beyond compensation, the dabblers fearlessly go places they don’t belong, the dilettantes happily lack the hidebound pretensions of experts." - Via
