    QUOTES

    God stands out in the universe as the most glaring of all superfluous sore thumbs.

    Richard Dawkins

    'What is the purpose of the universe?' is a silly question.

    Richard Dawkins

    I have never grown out of the infantile belief that the universe was made for me to suck.

    Aleister Crowley

    If there are other worlds elsewhere in the universe, I would conjecture they are governed by the same laws of natural selection.

    Richard Dawkins

    The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

    Richard Dawkins

    I mean I think that when you've got a big brain, when you find yourself planted in a world with a brain big enough to understand quite a lot of what you see around you, but not everything, you naturally fall to thinking about the deep mysteries. Where do we come from? Where does the world come from? Where does the universe come from?

    Richard Dawkins

    Odd how the creative power at once brings the whole universe to order.

    Virginia Woolf

    So many things happen for every event, and if you try to manipulate it, it means you are struggling against the whole universe, and that's just silly.

    Deepak Chopra

    The universe is an intelligence test.

    Timothy Leary

    The only things in my life that compatibly exists with this grand universe are the creative works of the human spirit.

    Ansel Adams

    Surely the immutable laws of the universe can teach more impressive and exalted lessons than the holy books of all the religions on earth.

    Elizabeth Cady Stanton

    Let's choose today to quench our thirst for the 'good life' we thinks others lead by acknowledging the good that already exists in our lives. We can then offer the universe the gift of our grateful hearts.

    Sarah Ban Breathnach

    Old age, calm, expanded, broad with the haughty breadth of the universe, old age flowing free with the delicious near-by freedom of death.

    Edith Wharton

    I'm not one to take revenge. If someone does something wrong to me I leave it in the hands of the universe to take care of that person.

    Lana Parrilla

    Traditional science assumes, for the most part, that an objective observer independent reality exists; the universe, stars, galaxies, sun, moon and earth would still be there if no one was looking.

    Deepak Chopra

    No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man's front embraces the whole universe.

    Henry Miller

    I lose sleep at night wondering whether we are intelligent enough to figure out the universe. I don't know.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    The universe must exist for the self-expression of God and the delight of God.

    Ernest Holmes

    We will build new ships to carry man forward into the universe, to gain a new foothold on the moon and to prepare for new journeys to the worlds beyond our own.

    George W. Bush

    Short stories are tiny windows into other worlds and other minds and dreams. They are journeys you can make to the far side of the universe and still be back in time for dinner.

    Neil Gaiman

    The words of Christ are of more worth than the opinions of all the physicians in the universe.

    Ellen G. White

    I think if we wish to live in any kind of a moral universe, we must hold the perpetrators of violence responsible for the violence they perpetrate. It's very simple. The criminal is responsible for the crime.

    Salman Rushdie

    Most gravity has no known origin. Is it some exotic particle? Nobody knows. Is dark energy responsible for expansion of the universe? Nobody knows.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    God stands out in the universe as the most glaring of all superfluous sore thumbs.

    Richard Dawkins

    I have never grown out of the infantile belief that the universe was made for me to suck.

    Aleister Crowley

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    The universe must exist for the self-expression of God and the delight of God.

    Ernest Holmes

    My first job in all honesty is going to continue to be mom-in-chief. Making sure that in this transition, which will be even more of a transition for the girls... that they are settled and that they know they will continue to be the center of our universe.

    Michelle Obama

    We will build new ships to carry man forward into the universe, to gain a new foothold on the moon and to prepare for new journeys to the worlds beyond our own.

    George W. Bush

    Short stories are tiny windows into other worlds and other minds and dreams. They are journeys you can make to the far side of the universe and still be back in time for dinner.

    Neil Gaiman

    In every other science fiction series, humans are at the top of the food chain. In the 'Babylon 5' universe, they're in the bottom third.

    J. Michael Straczynski

    The words of Christ are of more worth than the opinions of all the physicians in the universe.

    Ellen G. White

    Most gravity has no known origin. Is it some exotic particle? Nobody knows. Is dark energy responsible for expansion of the universe? Nobody knows.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    Gravitation is the lust of the cosmos.

    Mary Roach

    Cross cultural experience teaches us not simply that people have different beliefs, but that people seek meaning and understand themselves in some sense as members of a cosmos ruled by God.

    Jeane Kirkpatrick

    The brain is the only kind of object capable of understanding that the cosmos is even there, or why there are infinitely many prime numbers, or that apples fall because of the curvature of space-time, or that obeying its own inborn instincts can be morally wrong, or that it itself exists.

    David Deutsch

    Life exists throughout the cosmos and is a consequence of matter in the universe.

    Paul Stamets

    For in the works of Robert Burns we see the whole cosmos of man's experience and emotion, from zenith to nadir, from birth until death.

    Len G. Murray

    We are the first generation of human beings to have substantial insights into the origin of our cosmos and of human life in it.

    Arthur Peacocke

    I think a scientist's job is to explore the Universe, to explore the cosmos around us. People always want to know - why is that useful? Well, on just pure fundamental grounds, on some level it's like art, it's like umm, music, it's aesthetics, it's like philosophy. You want to know where you are in the Universe.

    Brian Schmidt

    We don't really understand most of what's happening in the cosmos. Is there any afterlife? Who knows.

    David Eagleman

    It's an audacious thing to build a model of the cosmos. It's exciting how little we know.

    Shea Hembrey

    However, the Bible is called the Word of God because the whole transcript is an inspired, faithful, and infallible record of what God determined essential for us to know about Himself, the cosmos in which we live, our spiritual allies and adversaries, and our fellow man.

    Walter Martin

    Most of my nightmares that jolt me awake either involve the cosmos or something completely out of human control. In reality, I worry more about nuclear war, or war in general.

    Lorene Scafaria

    If you want to learn about a culture, you look at what buildings the people lived in but you also want to know about their cosmos.

    Marina Warner

    Star Trek's genial premise is that the cosmos is flush with intelligent species, and our descendants will interact with them face-to-face, thanks to warp drive and some winsome space cadets.

    Seth Shostak

    I read reviews and consider myself pretty 'plugged in' to the literary cosmos, yet one of the things I love best about book-touring is the opportunity to compare notes with favorite booksellers around the country. I always come home with books by authors I'd never heard of - or books I've read about but didn't realize I might love.

    Julia Glass

    By the law of averages, there has to be life elsewhere. The universe is so huge, and I don't think God would have created this whole big huge cosmos and just say there's only going to be life on Earth, and that's it.

    Gary Wright

    Specifically with respect to the Inhumans, they are almost a mythological creation in and of themselves - the way they work, the way they operate, the fact that they're royalty - and they've always been involved with a lot of the big cosmos events that Marvel has done.

    Charles Soule

    You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.

    Buddha

    Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.

    Plato

    There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.

    Aldous Huxley

    Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious.

    Stephen Hawking

    Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work.

    A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

    Albert Einstein

    The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness. When you become a mother, you are no longer the center of your own universe. You relinquish that position to your children.

    Jessica Lange

    To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.

    Lao Tzu

    While physics and mathematics may tell us how the universe began, they are not much use in predicting human behavior because there are far too many equations to solve. I'm no better than anyone else at understanding what makes people tick, particularly women.

    Stephen Hawking

    If your ego starts out, 'I am important, I am big, I am special,' you're in for some disappointments when you look around at what we've discovered about the universe. No, you're not big. No, you're not. You're small in time and in space. And you have this frail vessel called the human body that's limited on Earth.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.

    Marcus Aurelius

    Religion is part of the human make-up. It's also part of our cultural and intellectual history. Religion was our first attempt at literature, the texts, our first attempt at cosmology, making sense of where we are in the universe, our first attempt at health care, believing in faith healing, our first attempt at philosophy.

    Christopher Hitchens

    You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

    Buddha

    The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.

    John Muir

    I believe alien life is quite common in the universe, although intelligent life is less so. Some say it has yet to appear on planet Earth.

    Stephen Hawking

    Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where there were only walls.

    Joseph Campbell

    Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people.

    Carl Sagan

    The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.

    Galileo Galilei

    Smart phones and social media expand our universe. We can connect with others or collect information easier and faster than ever.

    Daniel Goleman

    Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.

    Lao Tzu

    All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.

    Swami Vivekananda

    Every living being is an engine geared to the wheelwork of the universe. Though seemingly affected only by its immediate surrounding, the sphere of external influence extends to infinite distance.

    Nikola Tesla

    We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.

    Stephen Hawking

    I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe.

    Dalai Lama

    Nothing in the universe is contingent, but all things are conditioned to exist and operate in a particular manner by the necessity of the divine nature.

    Baruch Spinoza

    The usefulness of religion - the fact that it gives life meaning, that it makes people feel good - is not an argument for the truth of any religious doctrine. It's not an argument that it's reasonable to believe that Jesus really was born of a virgin or that the Bible is the perfect word of the creator of the universe.

    Sam Harris

    A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe.

    Wayne Dyer

    They say the universe is expanding. That should help with the traffic.

    Steven Wright

    Studying whether there's life on Mars or studying how the universe began, there's something magical about pushing back the frontiers of knowledge. That's something that is almost part of being human, and I'm certain that will continue.

    Sally Ride

    Especially as a title-holder, you can do great things with charities, because people suddenly care about what you have to say. I wanted to make a difference, which is why I created the Queen of the Universe pageant. I want to change all of those stigmas in the beauty pageant world.

    Joyce Giraud

    Nothing is accidental in the universe - this is one of my Laws of Physics - except the entire universe itself, which is Pure Accident, pure divinity.

    Joyce Carol Oates

    The universe is not fair and it is never going to be fair.

    Daniel Keys Moran

    The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.

    Bill Watterson

    The whole universe is based on rhythms. Everything happens in circles, in spirals.

    John Hartford

    What does it matter how many lovers you have if none of them gives you the universe?

    Jacques Lacan

    I always wondered if there was a purpose to the universe, if there was a plan, if there was some sort of organizing factor, hopefully that I played a role in.

    John Green

    The universe is hilarious! Like, Venus is 900 degrees. I could tell you it melts lead. But that's not as fun as saying, 'You can cook a pizza on the windowsill in nine seconds.' And next time my fans eat pizza, they're thinking of Venus!

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    We think we have solved the mystery of creation. Maybe we should patent the universe and charge everyone royalties for their existence.

    Stephen Hawking

    Be universal in your love. You will see the universe to be the picture of your own being.

    Sri Chinmoy

    The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.

    Dave Matthews

    In this cry of pain the inner consciousness of the people seems to lay itself bare for an instant, and to reveal the mood of beings who feel their isolation in the face of a universe that wars on them with winds and seas.

    John Millington Synge

    For most people, we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon, but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us.

    Richard H. Baker

    Nothing is more active than thought, for it travels over the universe, and nothing is stronger than necessity for all must submit to it.

    Thales

    The universe has a much greater imagination than we do, which is why the real story of the universe is far more interesting than any of the fairy tales we have invented to describe it.

    Lawrence M. Krauss

    Sometimes I think we're alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we're not. In either case the idea is quite staggering.

    Arthur C. Clarke

    There is no explanation for evil. It must be looked upon as a necessary part of the order of the universe. To ignore it is childish, to bewail it senseless.

    W. Somerset Maugham

    The moral arc of the universe bends at the elbow of justice.

    Martin Luther King, Jr.

    For me, surfing is as close a connection I can have with Mother Nature. To surf, you're riding a pulse of energy from Mother Nature. And it's strong. It's real. It's there. And you're dancing with that. You're connecting with that. You're might be the only person in the history of the universe that connects with that particular pulse of energy.

    Xavier Rudd

    The black man in Africa had mastered the arts and sciences. He knew the course of the stars in the universe before the man up in Europe knew that the earth wasn't flat.

    Malcolm X

    I look for what needs to be done. After all, that's how the universe designs itself.

    R. Buckminster Fuller

    I believe that prayer is our powerful contact with the greatest force in the universe.

    Loretta Young

    Everyone is an ocean inside. Every individual walking the street. Everyone is a universe of thoughts, and insights, and feelings. But every person is crippled in his or her own way by our inability to truly present ourselves to the world.

    Khaled Hosseini

    Everything in the Universe, throughout all its kingdoms, is conscious: i.e., endowed with a consciousness of its own kind and on its own plane of perception.

    Helena Blavatsky

    I believe in aliens. I think it would be way too selfish of us as mankind to believe we are the only lifeforms in the universe.

    Demi Lovato

    Near the sun is the center of the universe.

    Nicolaus Copernicus

    The style of God venerated in the church, mosque, or synagogue seems completely different from the style of the natural universe.

    Alan Watts

    In a deep metaphysical sense, all that is conditioned is illusory. All phenomena are literally 'appearances,' the outer masks in which the One Reality shows itself forth in our changing universe. The more 'material' and solid the appearance, the further is it from reality, and therefore the more illusory it is.

    Annie Besant

    It's hard for anyone intelligent to be nonviolent. Everything in the universe does something when you start playing with his life, except the American Negro. He lays down and says, 'Beat me, daddy.'

    Malcolm X

    There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.

    Aldous Huxley

    Philosophically, the universe has really never made things in ones. The Earth is special and everything else is different? No, we've got seven other planets. The sun? No, the sun is one of those dots in the night sky. The Milky Way? No, it's one of a hundred billion galaxies. And the universe - maybe it's countless other universes.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    The principal reason for the universe's poker face is that its constituents are far away. Stars careen through space, and galaxies spin at speeds thousands of times faster than a jet plane. But given their distance, you'd need the patience of Job to notice much change in their appearance or position.

    Seth Shostak

    Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe loves nothing so much as to change the things which are, and to make new things like them.

    Marcus Aurelius

    The Law of Divine Compensation posits that this is a self-organizing and self-correcting universe: the embryo becomes a baby, the bud becomes a blossom, the acorn becomes an oak tree. Clearly, there is some invisible force that is moving every aspect of reality to its next best expression.

    Marianne Williamson

    The universe is monstrously indifferent to the presence of man.

    Werner Herzog

    A Hubble Space Telescope photograph of the universe evokes far more awe for creation than light streaming through a stained glass window in a cathedral.

    Michael Shermer

    I own about 300 pairs of shoes. When I start to go over 300, I have mini-sales from my closet and give the money to charity. It's my way of recycling; I feel like I can give back to the universe.

    Stacy London

    It becomes us in humility to make our devout acknowledgments to the Supreme Ruler of the Universe for the inestimable civil and religious blessings with which we are favored.

    James K. Polk

    I'm really proud of all the stuff we've built with Green Lantern - from Larfleeze to the different corps. The universe has expanded and will live well past my run. It was more than just telling another story, but really giving back to the character by expanding and adding to their mythology.

    Geoff Johns

    We account for one-sixth of the forces of gravity we see in the universe. There is no known objects accounting for most of the effective gravity in the universe. Something is making stuff move that is not anything we have ever touched.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson

    Globalization has created this interlocking fragility. At no time in the history of the universe has the cancellation of a Christmas order in New York meant layoffs in China.

    Nassim Nicholas Taleb

    In the digital universe, our personal history and its sense of narrative is succeeded by our social networking profile - a snapshot of the current moment. The information itself - our social graph of friends and likes - is a product being sold to market researchers in order to better predict and guide our futures.

    Douglas Rushkoff

    By means of microscopic observation and astronomical projection the lotus flower can become the foundation for an entire theory of the universe and an agent whereby we may perceive Truth.

    Yukio Mishima

    If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits?

    Carl Sagan

    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!

    William James

    Just what future the Designer of the universe has provided for the souls of men I do not know, I cannot prove. But I find that the whole order of Nature confirms my confidence that, if it is not like our noblest hopes and dreams, it will transcend them.

    Henry Norris Russell

    My atheism, like that of Spinoza, is true piety towards the universe and denies only gods fashioned by men in their own image, to be servants of their human interests.

    George Santayana

    Against eternal injustice, man must assert justice, and to protest against the universe of grief, he must create happiness.

    Albert Camus

    The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.

    Marcus Aurelius

    Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing.

    Stephen Hawking

    So long as the universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the universe is really completely self-contained, having no boundary or edge, it would have neither beginning nor end: it would simply be. What place, then, for a creator?

    Stephen Hawking

    Go on, prove me wrong. Destroy the fabric of the universe. See if I care.

    Terry Pratchett

    I wasn't the typical pageant girl - I was a little more nerdy, and they gave me a voice. I created the Queen of the Universe pageant, which is charity-based, to benefit UNESCO. For me, the most important thing is that contestants have a charity-based platform or charity ambition.

    Joyce Giraud

    There is an orderliness in the universe, there is an unalterable law governing everything and every being that exists or lives. It is no blind law; for no blind law can govern the conduct of living beings.

    Mahatma Gandhi

    Truth is something which can't be told in a few words. Those who simplify the universe only reduce the expansion of its meaning.

    Anais Nin

    Changes... can only be effected by alterations in the original. The only thing not prerecorded in a prerecorded universe are the prerecordings themselves. The copies can only repeat themselves word for word. A virus is a copy. You can pretty it up, cut it up, scramble it - it will reassemble in the same form.

    William S. Burroughs

    The idea of God as a fatherly figure who looks down on us and worries about how we're doing or takes sides when we have fights - it's more irritating than Santa Claus. The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.

    Dave Matthews

    The nightmare of materialism, which has turned the life of the universe into an evil, useless game, is not yet past; it holds the awakening soul still in its grip.

    Wassily Kandinsky

    The fact that one can lose one's sense of self in an ocean of tranquility does not mean that one's consciousness is immaterial or that it presided over the birth of the universe.

    Sam Harris

    An egg is a beautiful, sophisticated thing that can create even more sophisticated things, such as chickens. And we know in our heart of hearts that the universe does not travel from mush to complexity. In fact, this gut instinct is reflected in one of the most fundamental laws of physics, the second law of thermodynamics, or the law of entropy.

    David Christian

    From this time on, the universe is built up into an aggregate of permanent objects connected by causal relations that are independent of the subject and are placed in objective space and time.

    Jean Piaget

    The simple hearth of the small farm is the true center of our universe.

    Masanobu Fukuoka

    Neuroscience is by far the most exciting branch of science because the brain is the most fascinating object in the universe. Every human brain is different - the brain makes each human unique and defines who he or she is.

    Stanley B. Prusiner

    A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man's life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars.

    Henry David Thoreau
