“There are frontiers where we are learning, and our desire for knowledge burns. They are in the most minute reaches of the fabric of space, at the origins of the cosmos, in the nature of time, in the phenomenon of black holes, and in the workings of our own thought processes. Here, on the edge of what we know, in contact with the ocean of the unknown, shines the mystery and the beauty of the world. And it’s breathtaking.”
― Carlo Rovelli, Seven Brief Lessons on Physics

“People never believe you.”

― Neil Shubin, Your Inner Fish: a Journey into the 3.5-Billion-Year History of the Human Body

“Undrape! you are not guilty to me, nor stale nor discarded,
I see through the broadcloth and gingham whether or no,
And am around, tenacious, acquisitive, tireless, and cannot be shaken away.”
― Walt Whitman, Song of Myself
