Once I Wept For I Had No

We Have Made Remarkable Progress In The Last Hundred Years, But If We Want To Continue, Our Future Is In Space.

The Large-scale Homogeneity Of The Universe Makes It Very Difficult To Believe That The Structure Of The Universe Is Determined By Anything So Peripheral As Some Complicated Molecular Structure On A Minor Planet Orbiting A Very Average Star In The Outer Suburbs Of A Fairly Typical Galaxy.

But A Machine That Was Powerful Enough To Accelerate Particles To The Grand Unification Energy Would Have To Be As Big As The Solar System - And Would Be Unlikely To Be Funded In The Present Economic Climate.

You Cannot Understand The Glories Of The Universe Without Believing There Is Some Supreme Power Behind It.

I Don't Believe That The Ultimate Theory Will Come By Steady Work Along Existing Lines. We Need Something New. We Can't Predict What That Will Be Or When We Will Find It Because If We Knew That, We Would Have Found It Already!
