I Had Always Looked Upon The Search

Every Advance In Knowledge Brings Us Face To Face With The Mystery Of Our Own Being.

It Is Not The Possession Of Truth, But The Success Which Attends The Seeking After It, That Enriches The Seeker And Brings Happiness To Him.

As A Man Who Has Devoted His Whole Life To The Most Clear Headed Science, To The Study Of Matter, I Can Tell You As A Result Of My Research About Atoms This Much: There Is No Matter As Such. All Matter Originates And Exists Only By Virtue Of A Force Which Brings The Particle Of An Atom To Vibration And Holds This Most Minute Solar System Of The Atom Together. We Must Assume Behind This Force The Existence Of A Conscious And Intelligent Mind. This Mind Is The Matrix Of All Matter.

We Are In A Position Similar To That Of A Mountaineer Who Is Wandering Over Uncharted Spaces, And Never Knows Whether Behind The Peak Which He Sees In Front Of Him And Which He Tries To Scale There May Not Be Another Peak Still Beyond And Higher Up.

Modern Physics Has Taught Us That The Nature Of Any System Cannot Be Discovered By Dividing It Into Its Component Parts And Studying Each Part By Itself... We Must Keep Our Attention Fixed On The Whole And On The Interconnection Between The Parts. The Same Is True Of Our Intellectual Life. It Is Impossible To Make A Clear Cut Between Science, Religion, And Art. The Whole Is Never Equal Simply To The Sum Of Its Various Parts.
