• How peacefully he sleep!
  Yet may his ever-questing spirit, freed at length
  from all the frettings of this little world,
  Wander at will among the uncharted stars.
  Fairfield his name. Perchance celestial fields
  disclosing long sought secrets of the past
  Spread 'neath his enraptured gaze
  And beasts and men that to his earthly sight
  were merely bits of stone shall live again to
  gladden those eager eyes.
  o let us picture him-enthusiast-scientist-friend-
  Seeker of truth and light through all eternity!

  Charles R. Knight

• Creo que cuando exageramos nuestra agresividad militar, lo que hace en realidad es debilitar nuestra defensa nacional. Quiero decir, nos enfrentamos a los soviéticos. Tenían 40.000 armas nucleares.

• Theodor Geisel (otherwise known as Dr. Seuss) spent his workdays ensconced in his private studio, the walls lined with sketches and drawings, in a bell-tower outside his La Jolla, California, house.
