Keith Pille: Your entire lifestyle,
with its massive infrastructure to provide with you easy access
to food, a heated home, all sorts of electronic amusements,
and a medical system to heal you up in case of emergency,
is an enormous historical abberation. For at least two-thirds
of the existence of the universe, there was no Earth. For
the vast majority of the history of Earth, there were no humans.
For the preponderance of time humans have been around, the
biggest chunk was spent in a pre-civilized state. Everything
that seems completely natural to you has only been around
for an eyeblink in big-picture terms. Shit, most of the gadgets
in your living room weren't even science fiction a hundred
years ago.
Dude, I just blew your mind.
Don Pizarro: Charlie Parker once said, "If you
don't live it, it won't come out of your horn." My corollary
has always been, "The way you do live, does."
Simon
Riordan: Even though
I've just begun, my work here is almost done.
Note: I made this up in the 4th grade
while I was on my paper route.
Grant Weeks: A babe in the
kitchen is worth two on the beach.
