The cup of secret knowledge, oh what a bitter cup is can be...

Reality is usually scoffed at and illusion is usually king, but in the battle for the survival of Western civilization it will be reality and not illusion or delusion that will determine what the future will bring. -Dr. Stanley Monteith
The strategy the Werner Von Braun taught me was that first the Russians are going to be considered the enemy... Then terrorists would be identified, and that was soon to follow... Then we were going to identify third-world country 'crazies.' We now call them Nations of Concern. But he said that would be the third enemy against whom we should build space-based weapons. The next enemy was asteroids. Now, at the point eh kind of chuckled the first time he said it. Asteroids - against asteroids we are going to build space-based weapons. And the funniest one of all was what he called aliens, extraterrestrials." -Dr. Carol Rosin
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.  - Bene Gesserit rite - litany against fear
