Alan Alda
“Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won't come in.”
Alan Alda

Neil Gaiman
“You can no more read the same book again than you can step into the same river.”
Neil Gaiman, The View from the Cheap Seats: Selected Nonfiction

“Science embodies the human desire to understand nature; technology couples that desire with the ambition to control nature.”
Siddhartha Muker

Chris Hadfield
“Decide in your heart of hearts what really excites and challenges you, and start moving your life in that direction. Every decision you make, from what you eat to what you do with your time tonight, turns you into who you are tomorrow, and the day after that. Look at who you want to be, and start sculpting yourself into that person. You may not get exactly where you thought you'd be, but you will be doing things that suit you in a profession you believe in. Don't let life randomly kick you into the adult you don't want to become.”
Chris Hadfield

Neil Gaiman
“Young man," he said, "understand this: there are two Londons. There's London Above―that's where you lived―and then there's London Below―the Underside―inhabited by the people who fell through the cracks in the world. Now you're one of them. Good night.”
Neil Gaiman, Neverwhere
