Quote by Elizabeth Heiter

“There was something compelling about him. And it was more than the tall, dark and handsome thing he had going for him, or the adorable dog who followed him around. It was the eyes, she realized. The way they'd fixed on her, given her one hundred percent of his attention. A psychologist's trick, surely, but it had felt personal.”

“I learned quickly that everything in the military that involves paperwork or money is more difficult than it needs to be. You have to be persistent and thorough, and even then, you'll probably be told "no" a few times and be forced to start the process over again. Finding help is nearly impossible. With a disinterested grimace, everyone will tell you that someone else is who you need to talk to until you realize no one knows the answer to your question or cares enough to find it. At that point, you have two choices: give up or be a pain in the ass. I chose the latter. Squeaky wheel gets the grease.”

“They have to leave their mark. They can't just watch. They can't just appreciate. They can't just fit into the natural order. They have to make something unnatural happen. That is the scientist's job, and now we have whole societies that try to be scientific... We've had four hundred years of modern science, and we ought to know by now what it's good for, and what it's not good for. It's time for a change.”

“Monotony collapses time; novelty unfolds it. You can exercise daily and eat healthily and live a long life, while experiencing a short one. If you spend your life sitting in a cubicle and passing papers, one day is bound to blend unmemorably into the next - and disappear. That's why it's so important to change routines regularly, and take vacations to exotic locales, and have as many new experiences as possible that can serve to anchor our memories. Creating new memories stretches out psychological time, and lengthens our perception of our lives.”
