“The word "experiment" is loosely applied in western science, probably in part because it suggests that impressive or important research is being accomplished and also because that word provides a vowel essential for sexy acronyms.”
Robert T. Paine, Marine Rocky Shores and Community Ecology: An Experimentalist's Perspective

Agatha Christie
“May your moustaches never grow less.”
Agatha Christie, Hallowe'en Party

Terry Pratchett
“There is no higher life form than a librarian.”
Terry Pratchett

“Like any other momentous shift in emotion, depression is not an occupation by a foreign army; it is civil insurrection, the subversion of identity's republic from within. A depressed person loses more than energy and appetite--he loses himself and the capacity to make the decisions his former, pre-coup self would have made.”
Thomas Lewis, A General Theory of Love

“Encountering an early series of consistent instances can implant an erroneous generality in a child's mind. This mental machinery distills and does not evaluate; it cannot detect whether the larger world runs in accordance with the scheme it has drawn forth from the emotional microcosm of a family. Just as grammatical English emerges from our lips automatically, a structured pattern of emotional relatedness emanates from each of us.”
Thomas Lewis, A General Theory of Love
