“I had no money. I had no savings account.So I would bring down my color TV set, a Sears TV with a cable snaked into it - they had no video-in back in those days - and hooked it up to the circuit of very few chips and then a little keyboard you could type on. And I was trying to impress people with how did he do it with fewer chips than anyone could ever imagine?” PeopleTryingLittlesImagineColorTvsTypeAccountsVideoSavingFewerImpressChipsSavingsCablesNo MoneyHookedKeyboardsCircuitsSearsSavings Accounts Author:Steve Wozniak
“Imagine you had a bank that each morning credited your account with $1,440 - with one condition: whatever part of the $1,440 you failed to use during the day would be erased from your account, and no balance would be carried over. What would you do? You'd draw out every cent every day and use it to your best advantage. Well, you do have such a bank, and its name is time. Every morning, this bank credits you with 1,440 minutes. And it writes off as forever lost whatever portion you have failed to invest to good purpose.” WritingWellsUseWould BePurposeNamesLostMorningForeverImagineMinutesConditionsBalanceDrawsAdvantageAccountsCreditPortionsCentsEvery Morning Author:Ann Landers

“We rarely hear, it has been said, of the combinations [that is, unions or colluding organizations] of masters, though frequently of those of workmen. But whoever imagines, upon this account, that masters rarely combine, is as ignorant of the world as of the subject.

“I had to imagine myself into certain aspects of [Julian Assange] character for our version of events. That involved extrapolating based on clues in his biography, his public persona, photographs, and other accounts of him by people who encountered him during that extraordinary period from 2007 to 2010 that we charted in the film [The Fifth Estate]. So, it involved a lot of research but, sadly, no contact with the man himself.” PeopleMenCharacterFilmCertainImagineEventsHe ManInvolvedPeriodsResearchAspectAccountsExtraordinaryPhotographVersionsContactEstatesBiographiesClueFifthPersonaAssange Author:Benedict Cumberbatch
