Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen
and thinking what nobody has thought.
--Albert Szent-Gyorgyi von Nagyrapolt (1893-1986)
(As quoted in I.J. Good's _The Scientist Speculates_ [1962])
People say, how can I help on this war against
terror? How can I fight evil? You can do so by
mentoring a child; by going into a shut-in's house
and say "I love you."
--George Walker Bush (1946- )
(Speech in Washington, D.C. on September 19, 2002.)
The impersonal hand of government can never replace the helping hand of
a neighbor.-Hubert H. Humphrey (1911-1978)
Each man takes care that his neighbour shall not cheat him. But a day
comes when he begins to care that he does not cheat his neighbour. Then
all goes well - he has changed his market-cart into a chariot of the
sun. --Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)
Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways it can
change someone else's life forever.--Margaret Cho 1968-
