Alfred de Musset
What a frightful weapon is human thought! It is our defense and our safeguard, the most precious gift that God has made us. It is ours and it obeys us we may launch it forth into space, but, once outside of our feeble brains, it is gone we can no longer control it.
Alfred de Musset
