WHEN ELLIOTT WAS TWO
"Proving that you don't
need Google's billions
or the BBC
weather centre's resources,
the four Spanish students
managed to send
a camera-operated
weather balloon
into the stratosphere."
The Daily Mail




"You can discover
more about a person
in an hour of play
than in a year
of conversation."
Plato
"Most pilots learn,

when they pin
on their wings...
that one thing

you don't do,
you don't believe

anything
anybody tells you
about
an airplane."

"Formula for success:
rise early, work hard,
strike oil."
J. Paul Getty
"What is success?
It is a toy balloon
among children
armed with pins."
"We owe a lot
to Thomas Edison
if it wasn't for him,
we'd be watching television
by candlelight."
Milton Berle
“To curb
the machine
and limit art
to handicraft
is a denial
of opportunity”
Lewis Mumford
"A man of action
forced into
a state of thought
is unhappy
until he can
get out of it."
Franz Kafka
