I do not make any clear distinction between mind and God. God is what mind becomes when it has passed beyond the scale of our comprehension.

You ask: what is the meaning or purpose of life? I can only answer with another question: do you think we are wise enough to read God's mind?

The greatest unsolved mysteries are the mysteries of our existence as conscious beings in a small corner of a vast universe.

If you want to have a program for moving out into the universe, you have to think in centuries not in decades.

A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.

Technology must be guided and driven by ethics if it is to do more than provide new toys for the rich.

So long as you have courage and a sense of humor, it is never too late to start life afresh.

peoples see more those thing which they can't see, and they see less to which they can see properly.

Nature is inside art as its content, not outside as its model.

I really don't have a problem showing the ugly side of people. If that means my wearing no makeup, that's fine. To me, that's beautiful.

Man's body is faulty, his mind untrustworthy, but his imagination has made him remarkable.

Every poem that I write is, in a sense, trying to find adequate words for this unspeakable word, around which my entire life turns.

I feel like I am very drawn to the short form stuff because it's just fun to be making something, and then, a week later, it's out. I will always be drawn to that kind of thing.

Folks talk too fast, and don't understand what they talkin' about.

But facts are facts, and if we only get enough of them theyare sure to combine.
