“Sensual pleasures are the whip natural selection uses to control us, to keep us in the thrall of its warped values system.”
Robert Wright, The Moral Animal: Why We Are the Way We Are - The New Science of Evolutionary Psychology

Lawrence M. Krauss
“Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today.”
Lawrence M. Krauss

“Nature has gone to great lengths to hide our subconscious from ourselves. Why?”
Robert Wright, The Moral Animal: Why We Are the Way We Are - The New Science of Evolutionary Psychology

David McRaney
“J. E. Littlewood, a mathematician at Cambridge University, wrote about the law of truly large numbers in his 1986 book, "Littlewood's Miscellany." He said the average person is alert for about eight hours every day, and something happens to the average person about once a second. At this rate, you will experience 1 million events every thirty-five days. This means when you say the chances of something happening are one in a million, it also means about once a month. The monthly miracle is called Littlewood's Law.”
David McRaney, You Are Not So Smart
