"The task is ... not so much to see what no one has yet seen; but to think what nobody has yet thought, about that which everybody sees. " ~ Erwin Schrödinger, 1887-1961

“Any fool can know. The point is to understand.” ― Albert Einstein

“In everything there is a share of everything.” ~ Anaxagoras

I am a member of a fragile species, still new to the earth, the youngest creatures of any scale, here only a few moments as evolutionary time is measured, a juvenile species, a child of a species. We are only tentatively set in place, error prone, at risk of fumbling, in real danger at the moment of leaving behind only a thin layer of of our fossils, radioactive at that. ~ Lewis Thomas

“If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.” - Richard Feynman

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small. - Neil Armstrong

I am a deeply religious nonbeliever. This is a somewhat new kind of religion. ~ Albert Einstein

"If we are all creatures great and small, from bacteria to whales, part of Gaia then we are all potentially important to her well being. When we eliminate one of these from Earth, we may have destroyed a part of ourselves, for we also are a part of Gaia. We do indeed belong here. The earth is more than just a home, it’s a living system and we are part of it." ~ James Lovelock

For every one billion particles of antimatter there were one billion and one particles of matter. And when the mutual annihilation was complete, one billionth remained - and that's our present universe. ~ Albert Einstein

“Science is the poetry of reality.” ~ Richard Dawkins

Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgements of all kinds remain necessary. ~ Albert Einstein

"[T]he atoms or elementary particles themselves are not real; they form a world of potentialities or possibilities rather than one of things or facts." ~ Werner Heisenberg

"The idea of a universal mind or Logos would be, I think, a fairly plausible inference from the present state of scientific theory." - Arthur Eddington (astrophysicist)

Take your choice: blind chance that requires multitudes of universes or design that requires only one... ~ Ed Harrison ~

Some super-calculating intellect must have designed the properties of the carbon atom, otherwise the chance of my finding such an atom through the blind forces of nature would be utterly minuscule. ~ A common sense interpretation of the facts suggests that a superintellect has monkeyed with physics, as well as with chemistry and biology, and that there are no blind forces worth speaking about in nature. ~ Fred Hoyle ~

“What we know is a drop, what we don't know is an ocean.” ― Isaac Newton

Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love. How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love? Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with that special girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That's relativity. ~~ Albert Einstein

Death is not extinction. Neither the soul nor the body is extinguished or put out of existence. ~ Oliver Joseph Lodge, British physicist

"When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe." ~~ John Muir

The mind and body are like parallel universes.

It would be an error to overlook the possibility that the universe was planned rather than happening by chance. ~ Wernher von Braun

[Think] of an experience from your childhood. Something you remember clearly….After all, you really were there at the time, weren't you? How else would you remember it? But here is the bombshell: you weren't there. Not a single atom that is in your body today was there when that event took place . . . Matter flows from place to place and momentarily comes together to be you. Whatever you are, therefore, you are not the stuff of which you are made. ― Steve Grand

When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Do you see the real you, or what you have been conditioned to believe is you? The two are so, so different. One is an infinite consciousness capable of being and creating whatever it chooses, the other is an illusion imprisoned by its own perceived and programmed limitations. ~ David Icke

Asking where memory is "located" in the brain is like asking where running is located in the body. ~ Ian Neath

All things are in the Universe, and the universe is in all things: we in it, and it in us; in this way everything concurs in a perfect unity. ~ Giordano Bruno

“Everything that exists is a manifestation of the Divine Mind: but the Divine Mind, being inexhaustible and limitless, is never caught in any form: It is merely expressed by that form.” ~ Ernest Holmes

“The deepest sin against the human mind is to believe things without evidence. Science is simply common sense at its best- that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic.” –Thomas Huxley

We know only one source which directly reveals scientific facts - our senses. ~ Ernst Mach

The picture of an expanding universe implies that something cataclysmic must have occurred in the past. If we reverse the expansion of the universe and trace it backward in time, we appear to encounter a ‘beginning,’ at which everything hits everything else: all the mass in the universe is compressed into a state of infinite density. This state is known as the ‘initial singularity. ~~ John D. Barrow

The doctrine of the Trinity is much more abstruse than anything in relativity or quantum mechanics; but, being necessary for salvation, the doctrine is stated in the Bible. If the theory of relativity had also been necessary for salvation, it would have been revealed to Saint Paul or to Moses.” ~ Fr. Georges Lemaitre, proposed "The Big Bang Theory"

I don't pretend to understand the universe — it's much bigger than I am. ~ Albert Einstein

Put three grains of sand inside a vast cathedral, and the cathedral will be more closely packed with sand than space is with stars.~ Sir James Jeans

"We may all be netted together". ~ Charles Darwin ~

Gentlemen, the universe is like a library in which the words are atoms. Just look at what has been written with these hundred words! Our own bodies are books in that library, specified by the organization of molecules—but the universe and literature are organizations of identical, interchangeable objects; they are information systems. ~ Heinz R. Pagels

Everywhere there is incessant relative change in position throughout the universe, and the observer is always at the centre of things. ~ Giordano Bruno
