A Wise Man Once Said...

Fresh Beauty Opens One’s Eyes Wherever It Is Really Seen, But The Very Abundance And Completeness Of The Common Beauty That Besets Our Steps Prevents Its Being Absorbed And Appreciated. It Is A Good Thing, Therefore, To Make Short Excursions Now And Then To The Bottom Of The Sea Among Dulse And Coral, Or Up Among The Clouds On Mountain-Tops, Or In Balloons, Or Even To Creep Like Worms Into Dark Holes And Caverns Underground, Not Only To Learn Something Of What Is Going On In Those Out-Of-The-Way Places, But To See Better What The Sun Sees On Our Return To Common Everyday Beauty.

Engineering Is Not Merely Knowing And Being Knowledgeable, Like A Walking Encyclopedia; Engineering Is Not Merely Analysis; Engineering Is Not Merely The Possession Of The Capacity To Get Elegant Solutions To Non-Existent Engineering Problems; Engineering Is Practicing The Art Of The Organized Forcing Of Technological Change… Engineers Operate At The Interface Between Science And Society…

The Most Difficult Part Of Writing A Book Is Not Devising A Plot Which Will Captivate The Reader. It’s Not Developing Characters The Reader Will Have Strong Feelings For Or Against. It Is Not Finding A Setting Which Will Take The Reader To A Place He Or She As Never Been. It Is Not The Research, Whether In Fiction Or Non-Fiction. The Most Difficult Task Facing A Writer Is To Find The Voice In Which To Tell The Story.

This Royal Throne Of Kings, This Sceptred Isle,
This Earth Of Majesty, This Seat Of Mars,
This Other Eden, Demi-Paradise,
This Fortress Built By Nature For Herself
Against Infection And The Hand Of War,
This Happy Breed Of Men, This Little World,
This Precious Stone Set In The Silver Sea,
Which Serves It In The Office Of A Wall
Or As A Moat Defensive To A House,
Against The Envy Of Less Happier Lands,–
This Blessed Plot, This Earth, This Realm, This England.

- William Shakespeare
