"The remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.

We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.

And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes." »Charles R. Swindoll

The iron fist of the real, inside the velvet glove of airy mathematics." »Gregory Benford - Timescape
