  • The confidence in the unlimited power of science is only too often based on a false belief that the scientific method consists in the application of a ready-made technique, or in imitating the form rather than the substance of scientific procedure, as if one needed only to follow some cooking recipes to solve all social problems. It sometimes almost seems as if the techniques of science were more easily learnt than the thinking that shows us what the problems are and how to approach them.

    Friedrich August von Hayek's Prize Lecture, www.nobelprize.org. December 11, 1974.

  • Think about your future possibilities and the fact that your potential is virtually unlimited. You can do what you want to do and go where you want to go. You can be the person you want to be.

There are no obstacles to what you can accomplish except the obstacles that you create in your mind.

  • People who dream when they sleep at night know of a special kind of happiness which the world of the day holds not, a placid ecstasy, and ease of heart, that are like honey on the tongue.

Within its boundaries stand ancient and new sentinels, guardians of the universal force which has manifested on the the Earth. . . .
