Nikola Tesla (1857 - 1943)

Clifford Stoll, Silicon Snake Oil, 1995
I think of myself as an intelligent, sensitive human being with the soul of a clown which always forces me to blow it at the most important moments.

Jim Morrison (1943 - 1971)
Wretched, ephemeral race, children of chance and tribulation, why do you force me to tell you the very thing which it would be most profitable for you not to hear? The very best thing is utterly beyond your reach: not to have been born, not to be, to be nothing. However, the second best thing for you is: to die soon.

Aristotle (384 BC - 322 BC), Eudemos
