Do Not Fear to be Eccentric in Opinion, for Every Opinion Now Accepted Was Once Eccentric - Bertrand Russell (1872-1970)

When they discover the center of the universe, a lot of people will be disappointed to discover they are not it. - Bernard Bailey

ps. I wish to thank Tom Dooner for sending me a list of some excellent quotes.
