"'Safe?' said Mr. Beaver...'Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. but he's good. He's the King, I tell you.'"

"Travel is fatal to bigotry, prejudice and narrow-mindedness. Broad, wholesome and charitable views cannot be acquired by vegetating in one tiny corner of the globe."
Albert Einstein
"He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"If the stars should appear but one night every thousand years how man would marvel and stare."
C. S. Lewis
"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it."
Ansel Adams
"There is nothing worse than a brilliant image of a fuzzy concept."
