"There is seldom a solution if the problem is profitable." - Me.


One of my new pet hates for the New Year is people quoting supposedly 
wise people or philosophers, instead of using their own words. I know 
the educated take great pride in sticking in quotes and references, but 
what greater wisdom is there than creating your own?


"The things that may keep us intellectual prisoners are the references 
we take for granted" - Me.
