EXP 2: Clients Ideas.
Alfred Nobel
"The solemn silence of the midnight hour
Unchains the fettered spirit, and the power
Of reasoning takes a visionary flight
Beyond the limits of defective sight
Which may deceive us, yet attracts the soul
Even with its wild and undaring control"
- from Nobel's poem "Night Thoughts", which I extracted from the Kenne Fant biography on him. One may ask why I would lift a section of a poem from a scientist, but I think it is incredibly relevant to Nobel's ability as a thinking man, a human being rather than a prestigious scientist. I also think that it is one of Nobel's philosophies, as it deals with the natural phenomenon of curiosity and excitement, which ofcourse led him to invent dynamite.
Jacques Cousteau
"From birth, man carries the weight of gravity on his shoulders. He is bolted to Earth. But man has only to sink beneath the surface and he is free".

Sir Keith Campbell
Could not find anything on him, the man's an enigma. I believe that the former clients and their respective quotes have captivated me to a degree that my decision has already been made as to which two clients I will be designing for, but I shall keep trying to find the a Keith Campbell philosophy for the sake of completing this project successfully.
Ah! Here's one, not from Keith Campbell himself, but on his discovery of cloning.
"Men will not be content to manufacture life, they will want to improve on it".
