| Introduction | "Remember this, the woman came out of a man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on. Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal. Under his arm to be protected, and next to his heart to be loved." - Hebrew Talmud, "The Woman" Only a person who risks is free. The pessimist complains about the wind; The optimist expects it to change; And the realist adjusts the sails. -- William Arthur Ward The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them. -- Mark Twain You know that Latin motto, sic transit gloria? Well, I'm the gloria, and in my case the sic is for real sick. I'm not too sure about the transit but I think it has something to do with my car. ~Butterfield 8 |
| Interests | "Unlike a mathematical proof, a scientific theory is empirical, and is always open to falsification, if new evidence is presented. Even the most basic and fundamental theories may turn out to be imperfect if new observations are inconsistent with them." ~Wikipedia on science "On some positions, Cowardice asks the question, "Is it safe?" Expediency asks the question, "Is it politic?" And Vanity comes along and asks the question, "Is it popular?" But Conscience asks the question "Is it right?" And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because Conscience tells him it is right. - Martin Luther King Twenty-two percent of people met their spouses or long-term significant others on the job - Vault.com |
