"I received the fundamentals of my education in school, but that was not enough. My real education, the superstructure, the details, the true architecture, I got out of the public library. For an impoverished child whose family could not afford to buy books, the library was the open door to wonder and achievement, and I can never be sufficiently grateful that I had the wit to charge through that door and make the most of it." (I, Asimov, 1994)
"The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not "Eureka!" (I found it!) but “That’s funny …" ~ Isaac Asimov
"If my doctor told me I had only six months to live, I wouldn't brood. I'd type a little faster." ~ Isaac Asimov
