Quotations

A Camel is a Horse designed by committee.

Accept nothing, challenge everything.

Act quickly... but not too quickly.

Actions speak louder than words.

A guitarist is only as good as his drummer and bassist

A man’s libido is nine-tenths testosterone.

A proof tells us where to concentrate our doubts.

A rolling stone gathers no moss, so there’s nothing to cushion the impact when it hits.

All or nothing, now.

All That Glitters Is Not Gold, There's Brass And Copper Or It Might Be Plated!
