A sudden bold and unexpected question doth many times surprise a man and lay him open. – Francis Bacon
He that will not apply new remedies, must expect new evils: for Time is the greatest innovator: and if Time, of course, alter things to the worse, and wisdom and counsel shall not alter them to the better, what shall be the end?. – Francis Bacon
In every great time there is some one idea at work which is more powerful than any other, and which shapes the events of the time and determines their ultimate issues. – Francis Bacon

You dont want a million answers as much as you want a few forever questions. The questions are diamonds you hold in the light. Study a lifetime and you see different colours from the same jewel. The same questions, asked again, bring you just the answers you need just the minute you need them. – Richard Bach
