“Only dumb people try to impress smart people. Smart people just do what they do.”

“I don't know anything, but I do know that everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.”

“Speed eliminates all doubt. Am I smart enough? Will people like me? Do I really look all right in this plastic jumpsuit?”

“How old am I? Old enough to know it’s impossible to change the thinking of fools, but young and foolish enough to keep on trying.”
