Alan McDiarmid, a Kiwi and Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry, died today aged 79.
I saw an interview with him last year on Campbell live and he said this quote
" I am a very lucky person. And the harder I work, they luckier I seem to be"
Alan McDiarmid – 2006

Sir Edmund Hillary
"This generation will be remembered for three things: the Internet, the war on terror, and how we let an entire continent go up in flames while we stood around with watering cans. Or not."
Bono
"Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives."
William Dement – sleep researcher
"I’ve always thought smack in the middle of a contradiction is a great place to be!"

"Services that are worth getting talked about, get talked about"
Quote from Seth Godin
It means more than just saying something, or telling others to do something, it means 'being what you say and teach'. I want to be true to the word Agoge, and true to the way I live my life. True to the company and people that make up Agoge.
Quote from Andrew
"Scientists have played with atomic clocks, matched exactly, setting one in a plane to fly around the world, and another motionless, waiting for the return of its partner. When they reunite, the one that traveled rests milliseconds behind the fixed one. The faster you move, physicists have found, the less you experience time."
Quote from "Painted Deserts"
