“Satisfaction of one’s curiosity is one of the greatest sources of happiness in life.”
“Do unto others 20% better than you would expect them to do unto you, to correct for subjective error.”
“The way to get good ideas is to get lots of ideas, and throw the bad ones away.”
“Facts are the air of scientists. Without them you can never fly.” - Linus Pauling
