“Stealing things is everybody's problem. We [Apple Inc.] own a lot of intellectual property, and we don't like when people steal it. So people are stealing stuff and we're optimists. We believe that 80 percent of the people stealing stuff don't want to be; there's just no legal alternative.” PeopleWantBelieveProblemStuffIntellectualPercentPropertyStealingAlternativesApplesOptimistIntellectual PropertyStealing ThingsApple Inc Author:Steve Jobs
“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me." The adage is true as long as you don't really believe the words. But if your whole upbringing, and everything you have ever been told by parents, teachers and priests, has led you to believe, really believe, utterly and completely, that sinners burn in hell (or some other obnoxious article of doctrine such as that a woman is the property of her husband), it is entirely plausible that words could have a more long-lasting and damaging effect than deeds.” IfsBelieveMayLongWholeParentHurtBreakHellTeacherEffectsHusbandStonesPropertySticksDeedsBonesDoctrineSinnerPriestsLastingArticlesAdagesUpbringingHurt MePlausibleObnoxiousLong LastingSticks And Stones Author:Richard Dawkins
