Religion has convinced people that there's an invisible man… living in the sky. Who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer, and burn, and scream, until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you. He loves you and he needs money.

- George Denis Patrick Carlin (12 May 1937 - 22 June 2008)

The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible.

- Arthur C. Clarke (16 December 1917 – 19 March 2008)

This one's for you, you magnificent bastard.
