One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.”

And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
― Steve Jobs

“Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.”
