“I don’t want you to forget it. No matter where you are today, somebody helped you to get there. (Yes) It may have been an ordinary person, doing an ordinary job in an extraordinary way. Some few are able to get some education; you didn’t get it by yourself. Don’t forget those who helped you come over.”

“If you don't have a big enough shovel, you get some friends to help you.”
Paul MacCready Interview http://www.achievement.org/autodoc/page/mac0int-1, Engineer of the Century, January 12, 1991, Pasadena, California
Context: If you want to move mountains, you just go move mountains. If you don't have a big enough shovel, you get some friends to help you. If you have the enthusiasm to charge ahead, you can do all sorts of things. Some things you can't do. You can't invent a perpetual motion machine. You've got to select your targets. But people can do so much more than they realize.
