R,.W. Emerson, Conduct of Life

He who has a thousand friends

has not a friend to spare,

And he who has but one enemy

shall meet him everywhere

Albert Einstein

If there is any religion

which is acceptable to

the scientific mind

It is Buddhism.

The most beautiful thing

we can experience is

the mysterious

It is the Source of all

true art and science


No amount of experimentation

can ever prove me right,

A single experiment

can prove me wrong


Politics are for the moment

An equation is for eternity.


Aristotle

Probable impossibilities

Are to be preferred to

Improbable possibilities.

Abraham Lincoln

You can fool all the people

some of the time,

And some of the people

all the time,

But you cannot fool all the people all the time


The best thing

About the future is that

It comes

Only one day at a time.

Abraham Joshua Heshel

Wonder

Rather than doubt

Is the root of knowledge.

Alexander Pope

Nature and Nature's laws lay

hid in the night;
God said" let Newton be", and

all was light.

Austin Bobson, The Paradox of Time.

Time goes, you say?

Ah no!

Alas, time stays.

We go

When Science meets philosophy
