Work ... has always been my favorite form of recreation.

Think of submitting our measure to the advice of politicians! I would as soon submit the subject of the equality of a goose to a fox.

Around me I saw women overworked and underpaid, doing men's work at half men's wages, not because their work was inferior, but because they were women.

A population may be too crowded, though all be amply supplied with food and raiment. It is not good for a man to be kept perforce at all times in the presence of his species.

The geeks shall inherit the earth.

Special effects are characters. Special effects are essential elements. Just because you can't see them doesn't mean they aren't there.

Live long, my friend, be wise and strong. But do not from any man his song.
