is good to rub and polish our brains against that of

Men
give me some credit for genius. All the genius I have
lies in this: When I have a subject in hand, I study
it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. I explore
it in all its bearings. My mind becomes pervaded with
it. Then the effort which I make is what the people
call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and
thought.
Alexander Hamiltonr

Falling like dew upon a thought, produces
That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.

rule the world.

your thoughts and you change your world.
