“Stand before his grave and use your gift of breath to complain of your limited time. If you dare.”

“Aim high. You may still miss the target, but at least you won't shoot your foot off.”

“Think of the glory. Think of your reputation. Think how great it'll look on your next resume.”

“Even if there is only one possible unified theory, it is just a set of rules and equations. What is it that breathes fire into the equations and makes a universe for them to describe? The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe. Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?”

“Irreverence is a most necessary ingredient of religion. Not to speak of its importance in philosophy. Irreverence is the only way left to us for testing our universe.”

“For it can never be that war shall preserve life, and peace destroy it.”

“Home is not walls, but the memories that outlast them.”

“My heart knows what my mind only think it knows.”

“If you alone found out what the lie was, then you're probably right—it would make no great difference. But if you ALL found out what the lie was, it might conceivably make a very great difference indeed.”
