“the Extremis armor comes the closest to what would be needed for the whole Iron Man concept to work with a real biological human body. By the end of this book, I hope to have convinced you of that. This concept is also the furthest away from reality of any of the armors developed so far.”
E. Paul Zehr, Inventing Iron Man: The Possibility of a Human Machine

“The end cannot justify the means, for the simple and obvious reason that the means employed determine the nature of the ends produced.”
Aldous Huxley

“Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.”
Robert Frost

“The true science of martial arts means practicing them in such a way that they will be useful at any time, and to teach them in such a way that they will be useful in all things.”
Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five Rings: Miyamoto Musashi

“Even as a youngster, though, I could not bring myself to believe that if knowledge presented danger, the solution was ignorance. To me, it always seemed that the solution had to be wisdom. You did not refuse to look at danger, rather you learned how to handle it safely.”
Isaac Asimov

“It isn't that they can't see the solution. It is that they can't see the problem.”
G.K. Chesterton
