Give me a place to stand, a lever long enough and a fulcrum. and I can move the Earth

Mathematics reveals its secrets only to those who approach it with pure love, for its own beauty.

Man has always learned from the past. After all, you can't learn history in reverse!

Give me a place to stand, and a lever long enough, and I will move the world.

Give me but a firm spot on which to stand, and I shall move the earth.

Those who claim to discover everything but produce no proofs of the same may be confuted as having actually pretended to discover the impossible.

Rise above oneself and grasp the world.

There are things which seem incredible to most men who have not studied Mathematics.

Equal weights at equal distances are in equilibrium and equal weights at unequal distances are not in equilibrium but incline towards the weight which is at the greater distance.

Eureka! (I have found it!).

Any solid lighter than a fluid will, if placed in the fluid, be so far immersed that the weight of the solid will be equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. On floating bodies I, prop 5.

Vision without implementation is counterproductive.

I hope you remember that if you encounter an obstacle on the road, don’t think of it as an obstacle at all… think of it as a challenge to find a new path on the road less traveled.

My mother gave me my drive but my father gave me my dreams.

I gave the couple a hint of a design that would work great with the bones of their home. They weren't ready for it, and they embarrassed themselves and that's too bad.

Long hair is a security blanket for me. I cut it short a few years ago and I really never want to do that again. When I do cut it, I cut it myself.

I intend to be the greatest golfer in the world, the finest film producer in Hollywood, the greatest pilot in the world, and the richest man in the world.

What I am doing; how I am being as I am doing it; and does it bring honor to my community? What is the lesson in what I am doing? And most importantly, am I having fun?

You become a writer because you like to be alone in a room with your books.

If you are strong, appear weak. But if you are weak, appear strong.

You can't just place your faith and your hope in one system, because when that system fails you, what do you do?
