The world
isn't kept running because it's a paying proposition. (God
doesn't make a cent on the deal.) The world goes on because
a few men in every generation believe in it utterly, accept
it unquestioningly; they underwrite it with their lives.
-- Henry Miller
1891-1980, American Author
It is always
the adventurers who do great things, not the sovereigns of
great empires.

Let us never
forget that the greatest man is never more than an animal
disguised as a god.
-- Francis Picabia

Those who
intend on becoming great should love neither themselves or
their own things, but only what is just, whether it happens
to be done by themselves or others.
