    "The more informed you are, the more empowered you are to think for yourself, and the more representative our democracy will be".

    "I don't generally share opinions. It may not feel that way because I speak passionately about what I know, but if you look at my tweets and books, I hardly ever express opinions - because I don't care if you have them, I don't care a rat's a$$. As an educator and a scientist, I care only that you are scientifically literate".

    “Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not.”
    - Neil deGrasse Tyson - Astrophysicist, Director of Hayden Planetarium, Educator, Author, and TV host.

    is a society founded on trash and waste, and such a society is a house built on sand".

    If men can develop weapons that are so terrifying as to make the thought of global war include almost a sentence for suicide, you would think that man's intelligence and his comprehension... would include also his ability to find a peaceful solution.

    Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. Truly appreciate those around you, and you'll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life, and you'll find that you have more of it.- Ralph Marston

    Sirscrapalot - Be thankful for what you have, it could be worse.

    Seeking a quote for a long time reader had me find some others from a fella I do enjoy quoting...so..here ya go!

    Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat. - Robert A. Heinlein

    The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive. - Robert A. Heinlein

    When a place gets crowded enough to require ID's, social collapse is not far away. It is time to go elsewhere. The best thing about space travel is that it made it possible to go elsewhere. - You guessed it, Robert A. Heinlein

    An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life. - Robert A. Heinlein

    Yield to temptation. It may not pass your way again. - Robert A. Heinlein

    Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.
    - Robert A. Heinlein

    It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so.
    -Robert A. Heinlein

    Don't handicap your children by making their lives easy. - Robert A. Heinlein

    When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know, the end result is tyranny and oppression no matter how holy the motives. - Robert A. Heinlein

    I never learned from a man who agreed with me. - Robert A. Heinlein

    Don't ever become a pessimist... a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events. - Robert A. Heinlein

    Sirscrapalot - Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors... and miss. - Robert A. Heinlein
