Results from Classic Quotes:

Thou art God, and I am God and all that groks is God.: Robert Heinlein (1907 - 1988), Stranger in a Strange Land
A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.: Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900)
...the goodness of the will depends on the intention of the end.: Saint Thomas Aquinas (1225 - 1274), Summa Theologica

The great liability of the engineer compared to men of other professions is that his works are out in the open where all can see them. His acts, step by step, are in hard substance. He cannot bury his mistakes in the grave like the doctors. He cannot argue them into thin air or blame the judge like the lawyers. He cannot, like the architects, cover his failures with trees and vines. He cannot, like the politicians, screen his sort-comings by blaming his opponents and hope the people will forget. The engineer simply cannot deny he did it. If his works do not work, he is damned.: Herbert Hoover (1874 - 1964), Opening Quote of Chapter 5, Introduction to Aeronautics: A Design Perspective by Steven Brandt et Al.
I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.: Ayn Rand (1905 - 1982), Atlas Shrugged
He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man.: Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784)
There is no greater mistake than the hasty conclusion that opinions are worthless because they are badly argued.: Thomas H. Huxley (1825 - 1895)
There is no such thing as luck. There is only adequate or inadequate preparation to cope with a statistical universe.: Robert Heinlein (1907 - 1988), Time Enough for Love
I won't close down a business of subnormal profitability merely to add a fraction of a point to our corporate returns. I also feel it inappropriate for even an exceptionally profitable company to fund an operation once it appears to have unending losses in prospect. Adam Smith would disagree with my first proposition and Karl Marx would disagree with my second; the middle ground is the only position that leaves me comfortable.: Warren Buffett (1930 - ), The Warren Buffett Way by Robert Hagstrom+
