"Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of happy mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give."

"It is not what the man of science believes that distinguishes him, but how and why he believes it. His beliefs are tentative, not dogmatic; they are based on evidence, not on authority or intuition."

"The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper."

"Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give."

"We know very little, and yet it is astonishing that we know so much, and still more astonishing that so little knowledge can give us so much power."
