“We're obviously very pleased to have yet another Nobel Prize awarded to someone in our department.”
Richard Shoemaker
“In life we all are and have to be fighters, whether to be a street fighter or a prized fighter is purely our choice.”
Kiran Radhakrishnan
“Lindbergh made the flight to win a prize, not as a personal objective. I really saw the power of that prize written out for me in hard numbers: Nine teams spent [a combined] $400,000 to win that $25,000. It occurred to me that what space really needed was a prize to compel folks to build the ships that would take the rest of us there.”
Peter Diamandis
“Nobel prize money is a life-belt thrown to a swimmer who has already reached the shore in safety”
George Bernard Shaw
“Success is not being rich, but finding content in carrying out the thing that you'd give up your most prized possession to do.”
Dedrick D. L. Pitter
“We are pleased to see that the court kept its eye on the prize—the children's best interests—and granted primary physical custody to the parent who is best able to provide a stable and loving home, regardless of biology. This means that even though there is often just one biological parent in families headed by same-sex couples, biology alone does not trump the best interests of the child.”
Alphonso David
“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.”
Lao Tzu
