"Corporation, n. An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit without individual responsibility."
-Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
"Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life..."
"...Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride,
all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in
the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering
that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of
thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is
no reason not to follow your heart." -Steven Paul Jobs Sent from my iPad

Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
-Abraham Lincoln in his first address to Congress, December 1861
