“Sakyamuni means "the silent one or the sage (muni) of the Sakya clan". Though he is the founder of a widely taught world religion, the ultimate core of his doctrine remains concealed, necessarily, in silence.”
― Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces

“Being helpless is one of the things that isn’t altogether amusing." - Gilbert”
― Isaac Asimov, The Stars, Like Dust

“Since emotions are few and reasons many, the behavior or a crowd can be
more easily predicted than the behavior of one person can. And that, in turn, means that if laws are to be developed that enable the current of history to be predicted, then one must deal with large populations, the larger the better. That might itself be the First Law of Psychohistory, the key to the study of Humanics. Yet.'

R. Giskard Reventlov”

“Understanding what chimpanzees are like has made me realize that we humans are not so different from other animals as we used to think. What makes us most different is that we are far more clever than even the cleverest chimp, and we have words. We have a spoken language. We can tell stories about what happened a week or a year or a decade ago. We can plan for the future, and we can discuss things - one person's idea can grow and change as other people contribute their ideas. Great ideas become greater, problems are solved.”
― Jane Goodall, My Life with the Chimpanzees
