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 JamesLife exists in the
universe only because the carbon atom possesses certain exceptional properties. (The Mysterious
Universe)
View quotes by Sir James JeansEverything 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 FullerA 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 KentTo 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.
View quotes by Bryant H McGillProgramming 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 CookThe
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 DaviesMy child was not only carried by me, but by the
universe.
View quotes by Celine DionIf 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 HawkingTechnology is a way of organizing the
universe so that man doesn't have to experience it.
View quotes by Max FrischTechnology is a way of organizing the
universe so that man doesn't have to experience it.
View quotes by Mother TheresaSometimes 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 WattersonOnly two things are infinite, the
universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
View quotes by Albert EinsteinIt'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 MaughamIn 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 AdamsThe Answer to the Great Question Of.....Life, the
Universe and Everything.....(is) Forty-two.
View quotes by Douglas AdamsThere is more stupidity than hydrogen in the
universe, and it has a longer shelf life
View quotes by Frank ZappaFollow 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 FlatleyI 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 BuckThe 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.
