A package of 35 improvements to typical industrial motor systems can save around 50% of their metered energy…with a simple payback under 16 months.
 Amory Lovins
In the 19th Century people were looking for the Northwest Passage. Ships were lost and brave people were killed, but that doesn't mean we never went back to that part of the world again, and I consider it the same in space exploration.
 John L. Phillips
As we begin to comprehend that the earth itself is a kind of manned spaceship hurtling through the infinity of space ~ it will seem increasingly absurd that we have not better organized the life of the human family.
 Hubert H. Humphrey
Anyone can play an instrument if you show them how to move their limbs, lips or fingers the right way. It's irrelevant. What is relevant is personality, energy, creativity and disturbing sense of humour.
 Alex Kapranos

There is no difference between Time and any of the three dimensions of Space except that our consciousness moves along it.
People tell me I look mournful. They say, "Cheer up, Dan, it's not that bad!" Sometimes, I just look into space, which freaks people out. If I was ever required to do anything other than look haunted, I could. I'm a happy person.

I actually think that history has fed off the restlessness of cyber space, of kind of the frantic, segmented nature of the way we lead our lives. People want to be connected.
 Simon Schama
No one has ever seen the self. It has no visible shape, nor does it occupy measurable space. It is an abstraction, like other abstractions equally elusive: the individual, the mind, the society
 Irving Howe
Put you energy into music. If it fails you, you can become an accountant or a dentist. And then if you become a dentist or an accountant, it's too late to become a musician afterwards.
 Peter Tork
The letting go is an energetic process that moves us in a different flow of reality beyond the illusion and into more of a free-flowing liberation space.
 Christine McCormick Day
What an absurd amount of energy I have been wasting all my life trying to find out how things 'really are', when all the time they weren't.
 Hugh Prather
In architecture, space was a material to be shaped, even created. For these men, the material was silence. Silence like water in which you could drown, the absence of talk as constricting as the absence of air.
 Amy Waldman
You occupied my space. But because you were not in my present, when I looked into my future I saw . . . nothing. Isn't that sad? And stupid?
 Jerry Spinelli
