All the action, in semiconductors at the present time is in the new consumer applications, and that's where we have focused our activities since we started doing our own products in the late '90s.

David Milne, -
But surrealism is present in most of my pictures.

Rejoice in the things that are present; all else is beyond thee.

The present U.N. must be annihilated by our power. That is the stage for Communists. We must make a new U.N.

It has been popular to threaten 'small islands and low-lying coasts' with scenarios of disastrous future flooding. The Maldives has been the most utilised target. We have undertaken a careful analysis of actual sea level changes in the Maldives. No rise has been recorded either in the present or the past centuries.
Nils-Axel Morner, Scientist
If there were a clear prospect that such evils were part of a barbarian past, then at least we might find a small crumb of comfort. No such prospect exists: no scientific analysis can even remotely answer or account for past and present horrors of human behaviour.
Simon Conway Morris, British Scientist
The future is keeping you out of the present time.
Van Morrison, British Musician (1945-  )
