We are so small between the stars, so large against the sky.

There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.

The most lasting reputation I have is for an almost ferocious aggressiveness, when in fact I am amiable, indulgent, affectionate, shy and rather timid at heart.

To buy when others are despondently selling and sell when others are greedily buying requires the greatest fortitude and pays the greatest reward.

You can't publish a paper on physics without the full experimental data and results; that should be the standard in journalism.

Sometimes you've got to go to the wrong place just to show that you're not afraid to go there.
