Living at risk is jumping off the cliff and building your wings on the way down.
From Ray Bradbury
There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.

Video games are a waste of time for men with nothing else to do. Real brains don't do that.
Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spent the rest of the day putting the pieces together.
The great fun in my life has been getting up every morning and rushing to the typewriter because some new idea has hit me.
I don't try to describe the future. I try to prevent it.
