quotes

Carl Sagan, 1969

An artistic rendering of a building at the end of a long road to the horizon. There is a huge sphere of light in the sky. The hint of another planet and a galaxy is in the image.

And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves are part of nature and therefore part of the mystery that we are trying to solve." Max Planck

The Free Soul

An artistic rendering of a figure on a narrow city street walking towards one end of a huge rainbow.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens

Rainbows

An artistic rendering of a doorway in front of a very old floor. The door has a glowing world in it. There is no wall behind the door, just space and the hint of a forest. The quote reads: “What we observe is not nature itself, but nature exposed to our method of questioning.” Werner Heisenberg
