The simplicities of natural laws arise through the complexities of the language we use for their expression.
The fact that the climate is getting warmer doesn't scare me at all. There's no reason why one should be scared.
Everyone knows what a curve is, until he has studied enough mathematics to become confused through the countless number of possible exceptions.
When things get too complicated, it sometimes makes sense to stop and wonder: Have I asked the right question?
We were like heroes, to stand there and observe the police, and the police were scared to move upon us.
If they had not murdered Malcolm X, there probably never would have been a Black Panther Party.

You can't believe Russell Crowe is the same actor who won an Oscar one year ago for Gladiator.

Russell: Whoa, that's s gonna be like a billion transfers to get back to my house...
The further a mathematical theory is developed, the more harmoniously and uniformly does its construction proceed, and unsuspected relations are disclosed between hitherto separated branches of the science.
My training in Science of Mind had begun with my mother. She took me to a different church every Sunday, and she encouraged me to question the minister afterward.
The developing science departs at the same time more and more from its original scope and purpose and threatens to sacrifice its earlier unity and split into diverse branches.
Science is the first expression of punk, because it doesn't advance without challenging authority. It doesn't make progress without tearing down what was there before and building upon the structure.
Ideologically, the pursuit of science is not that different from the ideology that goes into punk rock. The idea of challenging authority is consistent with what I have been taught as a scientist.
And the continuity of our science has not been affected by all these turbulent happenings, as the older theories have always been included as limiting cases in the new ones.
