For most of my life, one of the persons most baffled by my own work was myself.

Fractal geometry is not just a chapter of mathematics, but one that helps Everyman to see the same world differently.

A fractal is a way of seeing infinity.

Think of color, pitch, loudness, heaviness, and hotness. Each is the topic of a branch of physics

Smooth shapes are very rare in the wild but extremely important in the ivory tower and the factory.

Why is geometry often described as cold and dry? One reason lies in its inability to describe the shape of a cloud, a mountain, a coastline or a tree.

Bottomless wonders spring from simple rules, which are repeated without end.

A fractal is a mathematical set or concrete object that is irregular or fragmented at all scales...

If you have a hammer, use it everywhere you can, but I do not claim that everything is fractal.

Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line.

Beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That's fractals.

Are you disappointed with society? If you are, I challenge you to take the first step. I challenge you to look at yourself.

...But first appearances are often deceptive. Not everything monstrous looking is evil, and not everything fair is good...and in every fairytale, there is a grain of truth.

Pressed against her I can hear eternity -- hollow, lonely spaces and currents that churn ceaselessly, and the fallen snow welcomes the falling snow with a whispered "Hush".

...it is not for the illusion of a moment to govern the choice of a lifetime.

The failure to work out sensible budgets makes it impossible for government agencies to make long-term plans, and instead leaves them scrambling to spend money in the short term.

When you get older you have to be careful about always saying, "Things aren't as good as they used to be." But it's hard not to.

Our philosophy is we call it as we see it. Sometimes you agree, sometimes you don't. Robust debate is good.

Socialist is not a human but animal - because human differs from animal in this that he has moral rules, and reds, as their program states, they disobey them.

Old truths are always new to us, if they come with the smell of heaven upon them.

The art of love is God at work through you.
