"I should dearly love that the world should be ever so little better for my presence. Even on this small stage we have our two sides, and something might be done by throwing all one's weight on the scale of breadth, tolerance, charity, temperance, peace, and kindliness to man and beast. We can't all strike very big blows, and even the little ones count for something."
-Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

"We have it in our power to begin the world over again."
-Thomas Paine

"Give me a place to stand and I shall move the earth."
-Archimedes
