"In many more relaxed civilizations on the Outer Eastern Rim of the Galaxy, the Guide has already supplanted the great Encyclopaedia Galactica as a standard repository of all knowledge and wisdom, for though it has many omissions and contains much that is apocryphal, or at least wildly inaccurate, it scores over the older, more pedestrian work in two important respects. First, it is slightly cheaper; and second, it has the words DON'T PANIC inscribed in large friendly letters on its cover." --Douglas Adams, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
"Madness is the exception in individuals but the rule in groups." --Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
