Frank Zappa

Ray Bradbury
“Stuff your eyes with wonder, he said, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.”
Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

Philip K. Dick

Philip K. Dick, I Hope I Shall Arrive Soon

J.R.R. Tolkien

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Mark Twain
“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect).”
Mark Twain
