An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don't. It's knowing where to go to find out what you need to know, and it's knowing how to use the information once you get it.

A visionary is someone who can see the future, or thinks he sees the future. In my case, I use it and it comes out right.

Any really good scientist is as much an artist as a scientist. All the interesting stuff is found on the edge between knowing and not knowing.
