Quotations
Universe
-Stephen Crane "Stephen Crane"
Science tells theology about the structure and history of the universe and its evolutionary nature. Religious insight can set the laws of nature in a more profound context of understanding, so that their deep order, rational beauty and anthropic fine-tuning become intelligible.
-Reverend John Polkinghorne "Reverend John Polkinghorne"
We too should make ourselves empty, that the great soul of the universe may fill us with its breath.
-Laurence Binyon
The cosmos is interesting rather than perfect, and everything is not part of some greater plan, nor is all necessarily under control.
-Carl Sagan "Carl Sagan"
The universe is wider than our views of it.
-Henry David Thoreau
The vast space of this universe doesn't end anywhere. Think, even if it ends,

certainly infinite universe what sort of things are we worried about?
-Deep Trivedi
The material universe exists only in the mind.
-Jonathan Edward

-Candace Bushnell
"Sex and the City"
Bliss, knowledge and wisdom are Sun himself. I bow to Mitra, Bhanu, to the shining one, the cause of the universe and let Him protect me from death.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
Vacuity, tranquillity, mellowness, quietness and taking no action characterise things of the universe at peace and represent the ultimate Tao and virtue. Therefore abide in them.
