"We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers.
We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocations of equations.
These are the tools we employ, and we know many things."

- "Such as? "

"The true secrets, the important things.
14 words to make someone fall in love with you forever.
7 words to make them go without pain, or say good-bye to a friend who is dying.
How to be poor.
How to be rich.
How to rediscover dreams when the world has stolen them."

"In a way, it is magic.
Magic of the human heart,
focused and made manifest by technology."

[Elric ; Babylon 5 - The Geometry Of Shadows]

"Clarke's Laws:

Clarke's First Law:
When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.

Clarke's Second Law:
The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.

Clarke's Third Law:
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

[Arthur C. Clarke]

"Deutsch's Law: Every problem that is interesting is also soluble.
Corollary #1: Inherently insoluble problems are inherently boring.
Corollary #2: In the long run, the distinction between what is interesting and what is boring is not a matter of subjective taste but an objective fact.
Corollary #3: The problem of why every problem that is interesting is also soluble, is soluble."

[David Deutsch]

"It seems to me what is called for is an exquisite balance between two conflicting needs:
The most skeptical scrutiny of all hypotheses that are served up to us and at the same time a great openness to new ideas.
If you are only skeptical, then no new ideas make it through to you On the other hand, if you are open to the point of gullibility and have not an ounce of skeptical sense in you, then you cannot distinguish the useful ideas from the worthless ones."

[Carl Sagan]

"Be formless... shapeless, like water.
If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup.
You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle.
You put it into a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Water can flow, and it can crash. Be water, my friend..."

"Use only that which works, and take it from any place you can find it."

"Do not deny the classical approach, simply as a reaction, or you will have created another pattern and trapped yourself there."
