Winston S. Churchill
“You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks.”
Winston S. Churchill

Robert A. Heinlein
“Control of anything essential to life should be decentralized and paralleled so that if one machine fails, another takes over.”
Robert A. Heinlein, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress

Neal Stephenson
“The difference between stupid and intelligent people—and this is true whether or not they are well-educated—is that intelligent people can handle subtlety. They are not baffled by ambiguous or even contradictory situations—in fact, they expect them and are apt to become suspicious when things seem overly straightforward.”
Neal Stephenson, The Diamond Age

Nikola Tesla
“We are all one. Only egos, beliefs, and fears separate us.”
Nikola Tesla, Nikola Tesla: 100 Quotes on Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Success

Charlotte Joko Beck
“We have all spent many years building up a conditioned view of life. There is “me” and there is this “thing” out there that is either hurting me or pleasing me. We tend to run our whole life trying to avoid all that hurts or displeases us, noticing the objects, people, or situations that we think will give us pain or pleasure, avoiding one and pursuing the other. Without exception, we all do this. We remain separate from our life, looking at it, analyzing it, judging it, seeking to answer the questions, “What am I going to get out of it? Is it going to give me pleasure or comfort or should I run away from it?” We do this from morning until night.

We have to see through the mirage that there is an “I” separate from “that.” Our practice is to close the gap. Only in that instant when we and the object become one can we see what our life is.”
Charlotte Joko Beck, Everyday Zen: Love & Work
