"Scientific theory is a contrived foothold in the chaos of living phenomena. So honest pioneer work in the field of science must forever remain life's pilot. On all sides, life is surrounded by hostility. This puts us under an obligation."
-Wilhelm Reich

Akirtim capi bhutani kathayisyanti te'vyayam sambhavitasya cakirtir maranad atiricyate.

If you abandon your duty, all will speak endlessly of your shameful deed. And for one who has been honored, dishonor is worse than death.

-Bhagavad Gita, chapter 2, verse 34

"During his fighting career Thvari had come up against an amazon, Brynhild, the daughter of King Agnar. They had set about one another..and she bested him many a time. Later, Thvari made her his wife, and although she wore a helmet and coat of mail at her wedding, their married life was a happy one."
-Bosi and Herraud Saga, verse 60

Beat your ploughs into swastikas,

and your pruning hooks into spears!

Let the weak say, "There go men of might!"
