We have found that where science has progressed the farthest, the mind has but regained from nature that which the mind put into nature.

The quest of the absolute leads into the four-dimensional world.

If an army of monkeys were strumming on typewriters, they might write all the books in the British Museum.

Oh leave the Wise our measures to collate. One thing at least is certain, light has weight. One thing is certain and the rest debate. Light rays, when near the Sun, do not go straight.

We often think that when we have completed our study of one we know all about two, because "two" is "one and one." We forget that we still have to make a study of "and."

We used to think that if we knew one, we knew two, because one and one are two. We are finding that we must learn a great deal more about 'and'.

Probably the simplest hypothesis... is that there may be a slow process of annihilation of matter.

Every body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, except insofar as it doesn't.

It is also a good rule not to put overmuch confidence in the observational results that are put forward until they are confirmed by theory.

It is impossible to trap modern physics into predicting anything with perfect determinism because it deals with probabilities from the outset.

We have found a strange footprint on the shores of the unknown.

If your theory is found to be against the second law of theromodynamics, I give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.

The mathematics is not there till we put it there.

Proof is an idol before whom the pure mathematician tortures himself.

It is one thing for the human mind to extract from the phenomena of nature the laws which it has itself put into them; it may be a far harder thing to extract laws over which it has no control.

We often think that when we have completed our study of one we know all about two, because 'two' is 'one and one.' We forget that we still have to make a study of 'and.'

It is reasonable to hope that in the not too distant future we shall be competent to understand so simple a thing as a star.

Curiosity is the essence of human existence and exploration has been part of humankind for a long time. The exploration of space like the exploration of life if you will is a risk. Weve got to be willing to take it.

When you really see how much God loves you, there's no greater love than that, and I had to match that amount of love He had for me, which is the reason why I decided to take a vow of celibacy.

Anybody who has been seriously engaged in scientific work of any kind realizes that over the entrance to the gates of the temple of science are written the words: 'Ye must have faith.'

I think it need realness, you should speak on thing that you know about, that you being from, that you experienced or that you been around, you know. I think you need a good hook, good beats and good lyrics.

And this is one way to do technology forecasting; get a sense of where technology is, and then anticipate the next upturn.

I always liked strange characters.

We don't know what our health care costs are going to be. We don't know what our tax rates are going to be. We don't know what our interest rates are going to be. We don't know what our energy costs are going to be. All these uncertainties are being driven by the Government's agenda. What we really need to do is get Government to step back.
