"Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home." --Matsuo Bashō

"I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy." --Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus

"The mechanic, who wishes to do his work well, must first sharpen his tools. When you are living in any state, take service with the most worthy among its great officers, and make friends of the most virtuous among its scholars." --Confucius, The Analects

"The supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience." --Albert Einstein

"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." --Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

"To live only for some future goal is shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain that sustain life, not the top." --Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

"You are never dedicated to something you have complete confidence in. No one is fanatically shouting that the sun is going to rise tomorrow. They know it's going to rise tomorrow. When people are fanatically dedicated to political or religious faiths or any other kinds of dogmas or goals, it's always because these dogmas or goals are in doubt." --Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
