“Politics is for the moment and equation is for eternity.” — Albert Einstein Quote

“Politics is for the moment and equation is for eternity.”

“If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?”

“It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.”

“Human beings must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.”

“The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.”

“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”

“The idea of infinite regress is absurd. The question of God cannot be reduced to a cosmological argument either. The ultimate question of reality is if there is something or not. If we agree that there is something, then the question is if that something can come into existence from nothing. Wouldn't it be more logical that there is just nothing? But just the idea that there is nothing implies, at least linguistically, that nothing is something; otherwise, we would not use the words ‘there is.’ Again, language demonstrates how limited it is.”

“As we draw connections between magical knights and actinides, we discover the remarkable potential of both, inspiring us to appreciate the bravery of a knight and the power of an element, each playing pivotal roles in their own stories.”

“In college, in the early 1950s, I began to learn a little about how science works, the secrets of its great success, how rigorous the standards of evidence must be if we are really to know something is true, how many false starts and dead ends have plagued human thinking, how our biases can colour our interpretation of evidence, and how often belief systems widely held and supported by the political, religious and academic hierarchies turn out to be not just slightly in error, but grotesquely wrong.”

“In the seventeenth century it was fashionable to regard the universe as a gigantic machine that had been set in motion by God. Even today, many people like to believe in God’s role as a Prime Mover or First Cause in a cosmic chain of causation. But what does it mean for a God who is outside of time to cause anything? Because of this difficulty, believers in a timeless God prefer to emphasize his role in upholding and sustaining the creation at every moment of its existence. No distinction is drawn between creation and preservation: both are, to God’s timeless eyes, one and the same action.”
