What I am going to tell you about is what we teach our physics students in the third or fourth year of graduate school...

Votes: 2 Richard P. Feynman

Only dreams give birth to change. Votes: 1 Sarah Ban Breathnach

The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes.

That's the great thing about New Year's, you get to be a year older. For me, that wasn't such a joke, because my birthday was always around this time. When I was a kid, my father used to tell me that everybody was celebrating my birthday. That's what the trees are all about. Votes: 1 Alan King

A lot of people say, 'Wow, you're a single father of twin boys, that's crazy!' Two toddlers can get hectic, but I wouldn't change it for anything. Every day they teach me different things.
