He who has never envied the vegetable has missed the human drama.

You're a vegetable, you're a vegetable,
Still they hate you, you're a vegetable,
You're just a buffet, you're a vegetable,
They eat off you, you're a vegetable.Michael Jackson
If I could be a vegetable, I'd be a pumpkin. It's realistically the only vegetable you can use as a weapon, or in any manner of defense.

"As far as being envied, that’s pretty flattering. I don’t remember being envied too often as a kid, when I was laying in a pool of my own snot and blood after a nice playground ass-kickin’."
Klayton
History of science played a very important role for me. Before I knew well how to do an experiment, I knew why Joliot has missed the neutron, why his wife missed the fission, why they succeeded in having artificial radioactivity, and even why they almost missed the other things, by doing very nice experiments, but didn't come to the conclusion. That is science. Science is doubt, is research. It is not something which is – and that is the danger of teaching – which is too academic and which the people explain you it is like the logic thing that comes out of the computer, which is not true. You have intuition, you have passion.
Georges Charpak
Prose is private drama; poetry is corporate drama.
