Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.Lucius Annaeus Seneca
It is a mania shared by philosophers of all ages to deny what exists and to explain what does not exist.Jean-Jacques Rousseau
The math is dead simple: it seems that the frequency of planets able to support life is roughly one percent. In other words, a billion or more such worlds exist in our galaxy alone. That's a lot of acreage, and it takes industrial-strength credulity to believe it's all bleakly barren.Seth Shostak
In theory one is aware that the earth revolves, but in practice one does not perceive it, the ground upon which one treads seems not to move, and one can live undisturbed. So it is with Time in one's life.Marcel Proust
