Universe Quotes
-
The trick is, after all, obvious. The Theist takes terms that can apply to sentient life alone, and applies them to the universe at large.

Having, unperceived, placed the rabbit in the hat, he is able to bring it forth to the admiration of his audience.

Empress of the Universe would be way too much work. I'd have to wear fancy clothes, probably including lady shoes with pointed toes, and could no longer slouch into the study in PJs and slippers.
