Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn't have to experience it. (Max Frisch)
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. (Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955), (attributed))
If the truth doesn't save us, what does that say about us? ( Lois McMaster Bujold, Diplomatic Immunity, 2002)
Clarity of mind means clarity of passion, too; this is why a great and clear mind loves ardently and sees distinctly what it loves. (Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1662))
