    Linus Pauling. I looked last night, but thought it would be cheating. Now I'm taking the hint to get the game rolling again...

    Here's one for the Canadians:

    A Proof is a proof. What kind of Proof? A proof is a proof. And when you have a good proof it's because it's proven.

    Yeehaa!

    It is not so much our friends' help that helps us as the confident knowledge that they will help us.

    That's for this game. I also have a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson in Dutch which I wish to have translated to English. Anybody here to help me out?
    Literally translated it goes some like this: Nothing makes your appearance, radiation (?) and behaviour so beautiful as the wish to spread joy (or happiness, perhaps).
    TiA.

    edit:
    Hint time already? I don't know the rules of this game...
    This Emerson is a 19th century essayist/philosopher/poet. I already gave you the words that might be good, you only have to give me the correct ones, since I tried to translate it from Dutch. :)
    The first, that you need to get the name for to get this game going, is not from America and lived about 21 centuries before R.W.Emerson. He died of kidney stones, btw. (nice hint, heh :shake: )

    Edit 2:
    This probably takes too long. The answer is Epicurus.
    Anyone else can come up with something now. I would still appreciate it if people could give me the actual, correct quote of R.W.Emerson, though.
