| "You have four years to be irresponsible here. Relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time, but you'll remember time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So, stay out late. Go out on a Tuesday with your friends when you have a paper due Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink 'til sunrise. The work never ends, but college does..."" --Tom Petty |

| "A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education." --George Bernard Shaw I figured it may apply. Something a little more philosophical: "The number of books will grow continually, and one can predict that a time will come when it will be almost as difficult to learn anything from books as from the direct study of the whole universe. It will be almost as convenient to search for some bit of truth concealed in nature as it will be to find it hidden away in an immense multitude of bound volumes." --Diderot "I prefer the company of peasants because they have not been educated sufficiently to reason incorrectly." --Michel de Montaigne |

"Only the dead have seen the end of war." -Plato "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence." - Sir Martin Rees Wisdom is created in wonder. - Socrates. Kill one man you're a Murderer. Kill ten you're a Monster. Kill a hundered you're a Hero. Kill a thousand you're a King. Kill them all and you're a god. - Unknown |
