“Your lack of fear is based on your ignorance.”
― Liu Cixin, The Three-Body Problem

“No matter what the odds, a man does not pin his last hope for survival on something and then expect that it will fail.”
― Alfred Lansing, Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage

“I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”
― Thomas A. Edison

“If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.”
― Frederick Douglass, Frederick Douglass: Selected Speeches and Writings
