“The day that you stop looking – because you’re content God did it – I don’t need you in the lab. You’re useless on the frontier of understanding the nature of the world.”

Imagine a world in which we are all enlightened by objective truths rather than offended by them.

In the end, it’s the people who are curious who change the world.

To learn more about science, turn off your electronic device and go outside and look around a bit. Nature is calling you. Go on. The internet will still be here.

You don’t want to raise a kid in a culture where the kid who asks the most questions is annoying. You want a culture where the kid who asks the most questions gets awards and gets another piece of cake.

So maybe part of our formal education should be training in empathy. Imagine how different the world would be if, in fact, that were ‘reading, writing, arithmetic, empathy.’

You can’t have people making decisions about the future of the world who are scientifically illiterate. That’s a recipe for disaster. And I don’t mean just whether a politician is scientifically literate, but people who vote politicians into office.

Intelligent design is a philosophy of ignorance.

The theory of evolution, like the theory of gravity, is a scientific fact.

Science literacy is the artery through which the solutions of tomorrow’s problems flow.

Today, scientists sound the alarm on other environmental dangers. Vested interests still hire their own scientists to confuse the issue. But in the end, nature, will not be fooled.

No one is dumb who is curious. The people who don’t ask questions remain clueless throughout their lives.

Aliens might be surprised to learn that in a cosmos with limitless starlight, humans kill for energy sources buried in the sand.

I know of no time in human history where ignorance was better than knowledge.

As they are currently practiced, there is no common ground between science and religion… Although just as in hostage negotiations, it’s probably best to keep both sides talking to each other.

One thing in life is for certain, the more profoundly baffled you have been in your life, the more open your mind becomes to new ideas.

Our nation is turning into an idiocracy.

The Cosmos was not made by gods but always was and is eternal fire.

Glory be and praise to God. I didn’t do any of this. God did. I don’t have a recipe or a blueprint. I prayed for it, and my prayers are continuing to be answered.

I put God first and do not allow other things to cloud my vision.

God is the partner of your most intimate soliloquies.

Four things to learn in life: To think clearly without hurry or confusion; To love everybody sincerely; To act in everything with the highest motives; To trust God unhesitatingly.

Know yourself and fit yourself to new fashions. For there is a new ruler among the gods.

God is subtle but he is not malicious.

How beautiful it would be if the poor could occupy in our hearts the place they have in the heart of God!
