“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
Albert Einstein

Terry Pratchett
“Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.”
Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time

Glad to be friends!! I never send out the requests myself because generally it can be seen as spam. I'm always thrilled to make new friends. Thanks for friend me!
