I expect to spend the rest of my life in the future, so I want to be reasonably sure of what kind of future it's going to be. That is my reason for planning.

I object to people running down the future. I am going to live all the rest of my life there.

Every father should remember one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.

Research is an organized method for keeping you reasonably dissatisfied with what you have.

A man must have a certain amount of intelligent ignorance to get anywhere.

I often say that research is a way of finding out what you are going to do when you can't keep on doing what you are doing now.

The future can be anything we want it to be, providing we have the faith and that we realize that peace, no less than war, required blood and sweat and tears.
