Quotes from Douglas Adams - author of Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy.
Enjoy! A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. Flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't. I'm spending a year dead for tax reasons. If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up. After a few months' consideration and observation he abandonded this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working. Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? Life is wasted on the living. The impossible often has a kind of integrity which the merely improbable lacks. There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened. Time is bunk. http://www.fallingskyhazard.com/catalog.htm |
