"We live in an era when established values are no longer valid, when prodigious discoveries are being made every year, when catastrophes of unbelievable proportions occur weekly.

Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something."
— Kurt Vonnegut

"They dined on mince, and slices of quince, which they ate with a runcible spoon"
— Edward Lear ("The Owl and the Pussycat", 1871)
