Pope Leo XIV
“Scientific discoveries are talents entrusted to humanity so that they may bear fruit (cf. Mt. 25:14-30). Technology has the power to heal, connect, educate and protect our common home; but it can also divide, exclude and generate new forms of injustice.”
Pope Leo XIV

Alexandre Grothendieck
“I could illustrate the second approach with the image of a nut that one must open. The first parable that came to my mind earlier, is immersing the nut in an emollient, perhaps water, and rubbing it occasionally, so that the water penetrates better, and we let time do its work. The shell softens over the course of weeks or months; when the time is ready, a little pressure from the hand suffices, and the nut opens up like that of a ripe avocado! Or even better, one lets the nut mature under the sun and under the rain and maybe even under the winter frosts. When the time is ripe a delicate sapling will emerge from the substantial flesh that will have pierced the shell, as if playing - or to put it better, the shell will have opened on its own, to let it pass.”
Alexandre Grothendieck

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Der Wald ertönt von tausendstimmigem Leben,
Tal aus, Tal ein ist Nebelstreif ergossen,
Doch senkt sich Himmelsklarheit in die Tiefen,
Und Zweig und Äste, frisch erquickt, entsprossen
Dem duft'gen Abgrund, wo versenkt sie schliefen;
Auch Farb' an Farbe klärt sich los vom Grunde,
Wo Blum' und Blatt von Zitterperle triefen –
Ein Paradies wird um mich her die Runde.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust, Zweiter Teil

“That sea of bliss in which the seeker drowns himself,
And that wonderful cause which forever makes it disappear,
The ignorance which makes the physical world appear,
Is the divine and perennial concept that we ourselves are Brahman.”
Joshua Norager, Advaita in translation 8 - the Raft of Awareness or Vijnananauka by Adi Shankara

Vladimir I. Arnold
“Every mathematician knows it is impossible to understand an elementary course in thermodynamics. The reason is that the thermodynamics is based—as Gibbs has explicitly proclaimed—on a rather complicated mathematical theory, on the contact geometry. Contact geometry is one of the few “simple geometries” of the so-called Cartan’s list, but it is still mostly unknown to the physicist.”
Vladimir I. Arnold
