“He was an atheist and it had been years since he read a book, despite the fact that he had amassed a more than decent library of works in his specialty, as well as volumes of philosophy and Mexican history and a novel or two.

We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful.”
