Perhaps if we reversed the telescope and looked at man down these long vistas, we should find less time and inclination to plan for our own destruction. View quote

I have rarely read anything which has interested me more, though I have not read as yet more than a quarter of the book proper.

Charles Krauthammer

Yet so strong is his constitution, that he may endure for centuries before he expires. View quote
