QUOTES ON THE NATURE OF THE UNIVERSE
Carl Zwanzig "Duct tape is like the Force. It has a light
side, a dark side, and it holds the universe together...."
Douglas Adams "There is a theory which states that if ever
anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is
here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something
even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which
states that this has already happened."
Albert Einstein "Only two things are infinite, the universe and
human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
Rich Cook "Programming today is a race between software
engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot- proof
programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better
idiots. So far, the Universe is winning."
Edward P. Tryon "In answer to the question of why it happened,
I offer the modest proposal that our Universe is simply one of
those things which happen from time to time."
Max Frisch "Technology is a way of organizing the universe
so that man doesn't have to experience it."
Woody Allen "I'm astounded by people who want to 'know'
the universe when it's hard enough to find your way around
Chinatown."
Fred Hoyle "There is a coherent plan in the universe,
though I don't know what it's a plan for."
Christopher Morley "My theology, briefly, is that the universe
was dictated but not signed."
Edward Chilton "I'm worried that the universe will soon
need replacing. It's not holding a charge."
Calvin and Hobbes (Bill Watterson) "The surest sign that
intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has
never tried to contact us."
