Over mij
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."
—William Shakespeare

"Keep answers as if they were mini skirts: short enough to keep it interesting but long enough to cover the subject."
—anonymous

"Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity."
—Albert Einstein [attributed]

"In the fullness of time, I believe programming fluency will become as ubiquitous as literacy."
—Steve Yegge

"I learned that everything you need to know to get a PhD in Literature is taught to you around 9th grade, when you first have to read a book with the intent of analyzing it, and write about it in an organized fashion."
—Raph Koster

"The purest example of theocracy in the twentieth century was Soviet Russia."
—Philip Pullman

"A living language depends on the legends which it conveys by tradition... Esperanto is dead, far more dead than any ancient language, because the authors of Esperanto never invented any Esperanto legends."
—J. R. R. Tolkien

"God is dead!"

"'Meaningless! Meaningless!' says the Teacher. 'Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.'"

"Life is suffering."

"Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."
—Carl Sagan

"I've said that to open a novel is to arrive in a music hall and be handed a viola. You have to perform.

"To stare at horizontal lines of phonetic symbols and Arabic numbers and to be able to put a show on in your head, it requires the reader to perform. If you can do it, you can go whaling in the South Pacific with Herman Melville, or you can watch Madame Bovary make a mess of her life in Paris. With pictures and movies, all you have to do is sit there and look at them and it happens to you."

—Kurt Vonnegut
