Universe Quotes

Quotations
Quote of the Day

Whatever universe a professor believes in must at any rate be a universe that lends itself to lengthy discourse. A universe definable in two sentences is something for which the professorial intellect has no use. No faith in anything of that cheap kind!
View quotes by William James

Life exists in the universe only because the carbon atom possesses certain exceptional properties. (The Mysterious Universe)
View quotes by Sir James Jeans

Everything you've learned in school as 'obvious' becomes less and less obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example, there are no solids in the universe. There's not even a suggestion of a solid. There are no absolute continuums. There are no surfaces. There are no straight lines.
View quotes by R Buckminster Fuller

A painting is a symbol for the universe. Inside it, each piece relates to the other. Each piece is only answerable to the rest of that little world. So, probably in the total universe, there is that kind of total harmony, but we get only little tastes of it.
View quotes by Corita Kent

To understand the mysteries of life you must look around and within. You will see patterns everywhere; patterns that seem to manifest themselves over and over again. These patterns exist intertwined within nature and man bridging the gap between the enigma of self and universe. You see them in spiraling galaxies and the Mandelbrot fractal of fossilized Ammonoidea; growing from the unknown to atoms to molecules to solar systems to galaxies to the paradoxical expanses of the universe with origins and destinations unknown; just like us in birth and death. The similarities of tree branches, rivers and blood veins. The power of cellular division and nuclear fission, the patterns of finger prints like endoplasmic reticulum, or a black opal's play of fire like the nebula of supernova. Moon shots are like protoplasmic lurches, while simple thoughts and observations of the nature around us take us beyond the unknown. The clues to the great mystery are all around us and deep within us.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
View quotes by Rich Cook

The universe contains vastly more order than life on Earth could ever demand. All those distant galaxies, irrelevant for our existence, seem as equally well ordered as our own. [Entropy in the universe]
View quotes by Paul Davies

My child was not only carried by me, but by the universe.
View quotes by Celine Dion

If we find the answer to that, (why it is that we and the universe exist), it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason - for then we would know the mind of God.
View quotes by Stephen Hawking

Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn't have to experience it.
View quotes by Max Frisch

Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn't have to experience it.
View quotes by Mother Theresa

Sometimes I think that the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.
View quotes by Bill Watterson

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
View quotes by Albert Einstein

It's no use crying over spilt milk, because all the forces of the universe were bent on spilling it (Of Human Bondage)
View quotes by W Somerset Maugham

In the beginning the universe was created. This has made alot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
View quotes by Douglas Adams

The Answer to the Great Question Of.....Life, the Universe and Everything.....(is) Forty-two.
View quotes by Douglas Adams

There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life
View quotes by Frank Zappa

Follow your dreams, because you wouldn't want it so bad if you couldn't have it. The universe gives you these dreams because you can have them. If you're willing to work for it, you can have anything you want.
View quotes by Michael Flatley

I am comforted by life's stability, by earth's unchangeableness. What has seemed new and frightening assumes its place in the unfolding of knowledge. It is good to know our universe. What is new is only new to us.
View quotes by Pearl Buck

The underlying sense of form in my work has been the system of the Universe, or part thereof. For that is a rather large model to work from.
View quotes by Alexander Calder
