Navy SEALs
- Speed
The Navy SEALs have a saying that applies equally to shooting as it does to typing: Slow is smooth, smooth is fast, fast is lethal. Keep this in mind.

NAVY SEALs have a saying that applies equally well to warfare as it does to typing: Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Use this thinking to improve your speed.

- Little Black Submarines
Little black submarines, operator please put me back on the line. Told my girl I'd be back, operator please, this is wrecking my mind. Oh, can it be? The voices calling me - they get lost and out of time. I should've seen it glow, but everybody knows that a broken heart is blind.

- Opinions
Here is something that's always served me well in life: my father always told me, "If you don't know enough about the other side of what you're claiming to argue, you don't know enough about what you are claiming to have a right to that opinion." By studying opposing arguments as well as what we claim, we allow for better understanding, and an opinion more indicative of reality.
Blind Seer
- O Brother, Where Art Thou?
You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the one you seek. But first... first you must travel a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril. Mm-hmm. You shall see thangs, wonderful to tell. You shall see a... a cow... on the roof of a cotton house, ha. And, oh, so many startlements. I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the obstacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward. Though the road may.
Isaac Asimov
I received the fundamentals of my education in school, but that was not enough. My real education, the superstructure, the details, the true architecture, I got out of the public library.
Isaac Asimov
Congratulations on the new library, because it isn't just a library. It is a space ship that will take you to the farthest reaches of the Universe, a time machine that will take you to the far past and the far future, a teacher that knows more than any human being, a friend that will amuse you and console you - and most of all, a gateway, to a better and happier and more useful life.
Antonin Scalia
If I have brought any message today, it is this: Have the courage to have your wisdom regarded as stupidity. Be fools for what you believe. And have the courage to suffer the contempt of the sophisticated world.
John Stuart Mill
The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
Bill Maher
Freedom isn't free. It shouldn't be a bragging point that 'Oh, I don't get involved in politics,' as if that makes someone cleaner. No, that makes you derelict of duty in a republic. Liars and panderers in government would have a much harder time of it if so many people didn't insist on their right to remain ignorant and blindly agreeable.
Andrew Jackson
I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office.
John Locke
- The End of Law
The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom. For in all the states of created beings capable of law, where there is no law, there is no freedom.
