“The truth, of course, is that a billion falsehoods told a billion times by a billion people are still false.”
--Travis Walton
The human mind cannot grasp the causes of phenomena in the aggregate. But the need to find these causes is inherent in man’s soul. And the human intellect, without investigating the multiplicity and complexity of the conditions of phenomena, any one of which taken separately may seem to be the cause, snatches at the first, the most intelligible approximation to a cause, and says: “This is the cause!"
--Leo Tolstoy

Children need encouragement. If a kid gets an answer right, tell him it was a lucky guess. That way he develops a good, lucky feeling.
-- Jack Handey
"Thus, the task is not so much to see what no one yet has seen, but to think what nobody yet has thought about that which everybody sees."
— Arthur Schopenhauer
