In a November 2009 60 Minutes interview, underwater Explorer Robert Ballard was asked: "What is your greatest discovery?"Without any hesitation he smiled and said with confidence... "It's the one I am about to make!"
Robert Ballard is the world's most famous and successful underwater explorer/scientist. He discovered the Titanic, as well as some profound discoveries of tube worms living at depths that most scientists said were impossible for ANY life. His explorations have gone to 20,000 feet depth (in SUVs). http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5825993n

"Cerca, trova" - seek and you shall find - words painted on a
five-century-old fresco in the council hall
of Florence's Palazzo Vecchio. Researchers think the message
pertains to the lost mural of Leonardo da Vinci. Researchers now
believe these cryptic words could be a clue to the location of a long-lost
da Vinci painting and are pressing local authorities to allow them to search
for the masterpiece of Renaissance art, most likely underneath another
mural painted 50 years later.

'But when I said that nothing had been done I erred in one important matter. We had definitely committed ourselves and were halfway out of our ruts. We had put down our passage money--booked a sailing to Bombay. This may sound too simple, but is great in consequence. Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, the providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way. I learned a deep respect for one of Goethe's couplets:
Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it!'
It's kind of fun to do the impossible.
-Walt Disney
We don't need magic to transform our world.
We carry all the power we need inside ourselves already. We have the power to imagine better.
