““A wise prince ought to . . . never in peaceful times stand idle, but increase his resources with industry in such a way that they may be available to him in adversity.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“I am going to tell you something you must not tell to any human being. We have split the atom. The report of the great experiment has just come in. A bomb was let off in some wild spot in New Mexico. It was only a thirteen-pound bomb, but it made a crater half a mile across. People ten miles away lay with their feet towards the bomb; when it went off they rolled over and tried to look at the sky. But even with the darkest glasses it was impossible. It was the middle of the night, but it was as if seven suns had lit the earth; two hundred miles away the light could be seen. The bomb sent up smoke into the stratosphere... It is the Second Coming. The secret has been wrested from nature.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“The nature of the All moved to make the universe.”

Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Remember this— that there is a proper dignity and proportion to be observed in the performance of every act of life.”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius
