“The light dove, in free flight cutting through the air the resistance of which it feels, could get the idea that it could do even better in airless space.

― Immanuel Kant, Critique of Pure Reason

“For God's sake, have some self-respect and do not run off at the mouth if your brain is out to lunch.”
― Anton Chekhov
