Christianity has always had sort of an ability to absorb the developments in science. But, it's always done it very slowly.

I can't see for the life of me how an attempt to understand the universe, which I believe comes from God, can alienate us from God.

Neither of us can come to either a knowledge of God, or a denial of God by our scientific research.

Science is and should be seen as "completely neutral" on the issue of the theistic or atheistic implications of scientific results.

I have never come to know God, to see God, to believe in God through doing science. He's not the conclusion of some sort of process of my personal scientific investigation.

I think today the church faces a very real challenge in not repeating the errors of the past, in sort of a stand off, a fear of science.

I hope I'm not giving the impression of an ivory tower science, but for me science is an attempt to understand, it's an attempt to understand the universe.

Being a scientist helps to support both my life as a Jesuit and my belief in God.

Nothing we learn about the universe threatens our faith. It only enriches it.

The whole dimension of religious belief requires transcendence, it requires going beyond what you can establish rationally.

Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The sun's rays do not burn until brought to a focus.

We've got a wood-burning pizza oven in the garden - a luxury, I know, but it's one of the best investments I've ever made.

People who call me the Twilight girl and mean it. Please, pigeon hole me. That means I did it right.

I see a great future for gold and silver coins as the currency people may increasingly turn to when paper currencies begin to disintegrate.

All the exciting contests and travel and sponsorships are cool, but I like to be able to have influence on people and on youngsters.

[when asked about what he was most thankful about]: Being alive. After heart surgery, you dig that part. Breath, family and friends are just amazing. Just to have a second shot is pretty great!

I think living with the absence of someone we love is like living in front of a mountain from which a person - a speck in the distance, on some distance ridge - is perpetually waving.

Death is very likely the single best invention of life. It is life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.
