    There is nothing—absolutely nothing—half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.
    Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)

    The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    My own ideals for the university are those of a genuine democracy and serious scholarship. These two, indeed, seem to go together.
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
