“I do not believe that an Inventor should marry, because he has so intense a nature and so much in it of wild passionate qualities that in giving himself to a women he might love, he would give everything, and so take everything from his chosen field. I do not think you can name many great inventions that have been made by married men.” - Nikola Tesla

"I consider my greatest accomplishment to be lifelong celibacy." -Issac Newton
