I just love the idea of space colonization; not only is it feasible, desireable, and economically useful, it ushers in a new age of adventure and discovery. I believe that I was born in between the two ages that would have satisfied me... The age of exploration, and the age of space exploration.

"You can't hang around waiting for somebody else to pull your strings. Destiny's what you make of it."
From book ten of Darren Shans Demonata series, Hells Heros, said by the character Bec. It's just self explanatory in terms of why it's my favourite quote.
Another one I like is from a British drama series called Britannia High;
"Take a breath like the world is out of oxygen and use it just too laugh."

"Life is not measured by the amount of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away." Author Unknown
I guess this quote was first published on a greeting card.

Failure is not an option
"Failure is not an option."
Because, as a writer, one must be prepared to face one rejection after another, time after time - and still consider oneself a 'success'... because failure is simply NOT an option! :)

If music be the food of love, play on. -Shakespeare
