Warrior of the Wind

“An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come.”
—Victor Hugo

“Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward; they may be beaten, but they may start a winning game.”
—Goethe

“Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.”
—Bertrand Russell

“When you are describing,
A shape, or sound, or tint;
Don’t state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to look at all things,
With a sort of mental squint.”

—Lewis Carroll
