| "To the degree we're not living our dreams, our comfort zone has more control of us than we have over ourselves." »Peter McWilliams |
| "The great omission in American life is solitude. . . that zone of time and space, free from the outside pressures, which is the incinerator of the spirit." »Marya Mannes |
| "Distrust any enterprise that requires new clothes." »Henry David Thoreau |

| "The heart may think it knows better the senses know that absence blots people out. We really have no absent friends. The friend becomes a traitor by breaking, however unwillingly or sadly, out of our own zone a hard judgment is passed on him, for all the pleas of the heart." »Elizabeth Bowen |

| "Humanity needs practical men, who get the most out of their work, and, without forgetting the general good, safeguard their own interests. But humanity also needs dreamers, for whom the disinterested development of an enterprise is so captivating that it becomes impossible for them to devote their care to their own material profit. A well-organized society should assure to such workers the efficient means of accomplishing their task, in a life freed from material care and freely consecrated to research." »Marie Curie |
| "A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks." »Thomas Jefferson |
