Deep gratitude to individuals for their generous gifts:
- From J. R. R. Tolkien --- beauty, brilliance, and caution united with deep modesty;
- From Carlton Morris Caves, Eugene Szedenits Jr., Yekta Gürsel, Cosmas Kyriakolis Zachos, Viktor Akylas, and other fellow students --- frugality, humor, and disrespect for authority where disrespect is due;
- From Daniel Dennett, philosopher --- guideposts for exploration of root issues in mind and meaning;
- From Chester Schuler, analyst and physicist --- perspective, a long-term view, and hints on how to overcome artificial barriers to progress toward ultimate goals;
- From Marcus Aurelius, Henry Hazlitt, and Arnold Bennett, Stoics --- critical introspection and conscious selflessness.
