The real price of every thing, what every thing really costs to the man who wants to acquire it, is the toil and trouble of acquiring it. -Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations, 1776 All our invention and progress seem to result in endowing material forces with intellectual life, and in stultifying human life into a material force. -Karl Marx, speech, 1856 Dreams are not so different from deeds as some may think. All the deeds of men are only dreams at first. And in the end, their deeds dissolve into dreams. -Theodor Herzl, Old New Land, 1902"
