Richard M. NixonWords are but the signs of ideas.
Samuel JohnsonEver since Newton, we’ve done science by taking things apart to see how they work. What the computer enables us to do is to put things together to see how they work: we’re now synthesized rather than analysed.

William ShakespeareA lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
Winston ChurchillTo be social is to be forgiving.

Bill GatesMy own experience is use the tools that are out there. Use the digital world. But never lose sight of the need to reach out and talk to other people who don’t share your view. Listen to them and see if you can find a way to compromise.
