Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal. I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

It's kind of fun to do the impossible.
Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.
We think in generalities, but we live in details. I haven't failed, I've found 10,000 ways that don't work. Behind every good man is a great woman. Life is not a sprint, it is a marathon. Do the right thing.
