"In this galaxy, there is a mathematical probability of three million Earth-type planets. And in all of the universe, three million million galaxies like this. And in all of that ... and perhaps more, only one of each of us." - TOS "Balance of Terror" - Dr. Leonard McCoy to Kirk.

The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long. And you have burned so very, very brightly Roy.

For some regular everyday bulbs, it is "the light that burns twice as brightly burns 1/12th as long".
32x the brightness can whittle 1000 hours down to 15 seconds of life.

Try running way to much current through some small (cheap) bulbs, and use a stopwatch

"Better to live one hour as a tiger than a lifetime as a worm."

"A man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a Heaven for?"

"Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven."

Those who were called skillful leaders of old knew
how to drive a wedge between the enemy's front and rear;
to prevent co-operation between his large and small divisions;
to hinder the good troops from rescuing the bad,
the officers from rallying their men.

The sons of the prophet were valiant and bold,
and quite unnaccustomed to fear.
But most courageous of all, or so I am told,
was Abdul the Bulbull Emir...
