Man is weak of himself and of small stature. He stands on a basis, at most for the flattest soled of half a square foot insecurely enough, nevertheless he can use tools, can devise tools. With these the granite mountains melt into light dust before him; he kneads glowing iron as if it were soft paste; seas are his smooth highways; wind and fire his unwearying steeds. Nowhere do you find him without tools; without tools he is nothing; with tools he is all.-THOMAS CARLYLE.
