Nobel Prize winner Al Gore
“I frequently daydream heroics. I am the hero. I’m saving a girl, or a fellow astronaut, or a besieged city, or a whole damn planet. Messiah dreams, do-gooder dreams. … They’re a hell of a lot of fun — so long as I keep ’em where they belong.” — Dr. Haber in The Lathe of Heaven, by Ursula K. Le Guin
