121 " מאז ומעולם רצה פול להיות עילוי. אבל מה שאיש מעולם לא אמר לו הוא שעילויים לא מרגישים כמו עילויים; הם מרגישים זקנים. הם מרגישים לשעבר בדיוק ברגע שנאמר עליהם שהם פורחים. כשמשבחים אותם על פריחתם המוקדמת או על תבונתם הרעננה, הם מבטלים זאת במשיכת כתף, מכיוון שבלבם הם יודעים שהם זקנים ומרקיבים. רק בשלב מאוחר יותר, אחרי ששנים של הישגים שיחררו אותם מחוסר הביטחון שלהם, יודיעו להם שהם כבר לא עילויים, אלא סתם הצלחות מזהירות. והם יתכווצו. כי רק אז, בדמדומי שיאם, הם מכירים בכך שהם עילויים אמיתיים. "
― Graham Moore , The Last Days of Night

EdisonEverything comes to him who hustles while he waits. T. EdisonThere is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly. Buckminster FullerBe alone: that is the secret of invention. Be alone: that is when ideas are born. N.TeslaDeciding what not to do is as important as deciding what to do. Steve JobsHeadlines, in a way, are what mislead you, because bad news is a headline and gradual improvement is now. Bill GatesIf you really look closely, most overnight successes took a long time. Steve JobsSometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open. A.G.BellAn investment in knowledge pays the best interest. B. FranklinThe most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. A.EinsteinThat's been one of my mantras: focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex. You have to work hard to get your thinking clean, to make it simple. But is's worth it in the end, because once you get there, you can move mountains. Steve JobsWe often miss opportunity because it's dressed in overalls and looks like work. T. EdisonLet's go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday. Steve Jobs "
