“All of us, whether or not we are warriors, have a cubic centimeter of chance that pops out in front of our eyes from time to time. The difference between an average man and a warrior is that the warrior is aware of this, and one of his tasks is to be alert, deliberately waiting, so that when his cubic centimeter pops out he has the necessary speed, the prowess, to pick it up.”

“Space—pure, empty, energy-free space—all the time and everywhere experiences so-called quantum fluctuations at a fantastically small scale of time, of the order of 10-44 second and less. During these quantum fluctuations, pairs of particles appear for an instant from the emptiness of space—perhaps an electron and an antielectron pair or a proton and an antiproton pair. Particle–antiparticle pairs are in effect all the time and everywhere being created and destroyed. Their destruction is so rapid that the particles never come into evidence at any everyday scale of observation.”
