Universe Quotes
-
I'm found of what's called emergence - as the universe gets more complex, new laws can emerge. Like evolution - there's things that you just aren't able to explain, even if you had an understanding of atoms.
Adam Frank
-
Just like that—in one apocalyptic moment—simple and beautiful. A birth. But also a kind of death. Like lightning in a storm. In one flash of light, the whole desert was lit, and you could see the universe. That’s what she had seen—the universe in the hands of a child feeling the face of a man.
Benjamin Alire Saenz
-
I stress that the universe is made mostly of nothing, that something is the exception.
Carl Sagan
-
If I have a fundamental belief that the universe is created by God, then I also come to the belief that that universe reflects God, it gives me some knowledge of Him. Obviously, therefore, the more I know of the universe is, the more enriched my limited knowledge of God is.
George Coyne
-
You contain a universe inside yourself. There's no end to it - your conscious, your subconscious. There is no limit to what's inside you. We are very much connected. There's no end to it.
Ann Shulgin

Odd how the creative power at once brings the whole universe to order.
Virginia Woolf
-
Perhaps the belief in God is the belief that the universe is intelligible, but not to us.
Thomas Nagel

Without the perpetual counterfeiting of the universe by number, man could not continue to live.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
A saint is simply a human being whose soul has ... grown up to its full stature, by full and generous response to its environment, God. He has achieved a deeper, bigger life than the rest of us, a more wonderful contact with the mysteries of the Universe; a life of infinite possibility, the term of which he never feels that he has reached.
Evelyn Underhill

This vast number of worlds, the enormous scale of the universe... has not been taken into account, even superficially, in virtually no religion, and especially in no Western religions.
Carl Sagan

Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.
Erwin Schrodinger

“It is important to distinguish 'pure chance' from 'chance' or 'accident.' Things may happen by chance or accident in a purely deterministic universe...Now there is perhaps a sense of 'could not have done otherwise' in which whether or not a person could or could not have done otherwise depends on whether or not the universe is deterministic.”
J. J. C. Smart
-
I think that, like in my writing, reality is always a soap bubble, Silly Putty thing anyway. In the universe people are in, people put their hands through the walls, and it turns out they're living in another century entirely. … I often have the feeling - and it does show up in my books - that this is all just a stage.
Philip K. Dick
-
If love is a play, this play, as old as the world, fiasco or not, it is, all in all, the least bad thing that has so far been found. The roles are trite, I admit, but if the play had no value the whole universe wouldn’t know it by heart.
Alfred de Musset
-
'Better Call Saul' happens in the same universe as 'Breaking Bad,' and we have the same writers and mostly the same crew. Like 'Breaking Bad,' it is a transformation story, and Bob Odenkirk brings his own distinctive flavour.
Michael Mando

A piece of art is a compact form of the universe.
Thomas Kinkade
