Here are a few from author Douglas Adams:
"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be." (Douglas Adams)
"All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great more robust, sophisticated and well supported in logic and argument than others." (Douglas Adams)
"A learning experience is one of those things that says, 'You know that thing you just did? Don't do that.'" (Douglas Adams)

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers." (M. Scott Peck)
