"The heights by great men reached and
kept,
were not attained by sudden
flight,
but they, while their companions
slept,
were toiling upward in the night."
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

My favourite quote from AA's Big Book:
There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance- that principle is contempt prior to investigation. ~Herbert Spencer
