- The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanely sensitive. To them... a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death.
Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create -- so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, their very breath is cut off... They must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency they are not really alive unless they are creating. - Pearl Buck (1892 - 1973)

- Scott Adams (1957 - ), The Benefits of Getting Old, Dilbert Blog, 08-22-06

- Pete Ashdown, Utah Geek Dinner Speech, 08-22-06
- If you have to have your weapon, at least run it through the grandma test. Take the weapon and hit your grandma with it. If she dies or writes you out of the will, don't bring it!
- Kent Nichols and Douglas Sarine, Ask A Ninja, 08-29-06
- Most people get interested in stocks when everyone else is. The time to get interested is when no one else is. You can't buy what is popular and do well.
- Warren Buffett (1930 - )
