Beam Me up Scotty, There's no intelligent Life Down Here!!!

The person that doesn't do anything, Doesn't make mistakes!

Give me a firm spot on which to stand, and I will move the earth.

Physical concepts are free creations of the human mind, and are not, however
it may seem, uniquely determined by the external world.
