Science belongs to anyone who loves to think and look for connections in nature.
“I'd far rather be happy than right any day.”
― The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

“But nature is always more subtle, more intricate, more elegant than what we are able to imagine.”
― The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark

“That sounds perfectly reasonable …” he said in a reassuring tone of voice, wondering who he was trying to reassure.”

“The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy says that if you hold a lungful of air you can survive in the total vacuum of space for about thirty seconds. However, it does go on to say that what with space being the mind-boggling size it is the chances of getting picked up by another ship within those thirty seconds are two to the power of two hundred and seventy-six thousand, seven hundred and nine to one against. By a totally staggering coincidence, that is also the telephone number of an Islington flat where Arthur once went to a very good party and met a very nice girl whom he totally failed to get off with—she went off with a gate-crasher. Though the planet Earth, the Islington flat and the telephone have all now been demolished, it is comforting to reflect that they are all in some small way commemorated by the fact that twenty-nine seconds later Ford and Arthur were rescued.”
