en Archimedes once said, 'Give me a place to stand and I will move the world'. Today he would have pointed to our electric media and said, 'I will stand on your eyes, your ears, your nerves and your brain, and the world will move in any tempo or pattern I choose.' We have leased these 'places to stand' to private corporations.
  Marshall McLuhan

  Alexandre Dumas

  Archimedes

en O vanity! you are the lever by means of which Archimedes wished to lift the earth!

en The heavens have stood, the earth has stood, all creatures have stood. The mountains have stood upon their foundation, the horses in the stable I have caused to stand.

en I said before, hopefully, Belmont day, I would move for every racetrack to have a lemonade stand on Belmont day throughout the entire United States and give a dollar to the lemonade stand or their local juvenile cancer fund. And, like I said earlier, everybody who was fortunate enough to bet on this horse, makes a little money, just take $1, donate it to Alex's Lemonade Stand or local juvenile cancer fund, and maybe we can make the world a better place.

Stand still, stand still, and stop the sun!
