A half truth like half a brick is always more forcible as an argument than a whole one. It carries better.

Standing beneath the white light of an Apple store is like standing on a Stanley Kubrick movie set. His '2001: A Space Odyssey' predicted Jobs and a future where technology was our friend. Kubrick of course didn't like what he saw. And occasionally I have my doubts.

Belief in oneself is one of the most important bricks in building any successful venture.

A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.

For myself I hold no preferences among flowers so long as they are wild free spontaneous. Bricks to all greenhouses! Black thumb and cutworm to the potted plant!

Kubrick's vision seemed to be that humans are doomed whereas Clarke's is that humans are moving on to a better stage of evolution.

I think my first big purchase was actually for my mom. She had one of those '90s TVs in her living room that's like a 10x10 brick so I purchased her a flatscreen for her living room.
