One of the characteristics that laymen find most odd about zoologists is their insatiable enthusiasm for animal droppings.

Ray Bradbury is, for many reasons, the most influential writer in my life.

I've always felt that a manager has achieved a great deal when he's able to motivate one other person. When it comes to making the place run, motivation is everything.

Consider the Koran, for example; this wretched book was sufficient to start a world-religion, to satisfy the metaphysical needs of countless millions for twelve hundred years, to become the basis of their morality and of a remarkable contempt for death, and also to inspire them to bloody wars and the most extensive conquests.
