Ok I'm not sure if this whole quote thing will work but this is my favourite one and I hope it will be included. Because it can be very useful for people who want to go through doors but always ran against it and get heavy injuries the whole time so this quote can be lifesaving.

Bah. Amateur.

How I want a drink, alcoholic of course, after the heavy chapters involving quantum mechanics. One is, yes, adequate even enough to produce some fun and pleasure for an instant, miserably brief.

Yes, I am god. I'm not trying to boast, it is just a simple statement of a fact.

And a funny story: When I activated my account from the email I got the quote "It doesn't matter how you do it, what matters is that you do it." or something like that. I'm still not sure whether that was a coincidence or not...

2100 BC: The first order of business is to learn what really happened to the late Apolyton XVII. A drunken barbarian , captured outside Memphis, and is cooked slowly over an open fire. (This procedure is called "barbaricueing".) The spit-roast protests that there had been an "unfortunate hunting accident", but after further basting he reveals that the barbarian warriors were hunting marsupials. Her-mann cries to the Sun God for vengeance!
