The real is only one realization of the possible.

The world is richer than it is possible to express in any single language.

The statistical probability that organic structures and the most precisely harmonized reactions that typify living organisms would be generated by accident, is zero.

The future is uncertain... but this uncertainty is at the very heart of human creativity.

We grow in direct proportion to the amount of chaos we can sustain and dissipate

The idea of spontaneous generation of life in its present form is therefore highly improbable even to the scale of the billions of years during which prebotic evolution occurred.

Entropy is the price of structure.

The more we know about our universe, the more difficult it becomes to believe in determinism.

(1) irreversible processes are as real as reversible ones. (2) irreversible processes play a fundamental constructive role in the physical world. (3) irreversibility is deeply rooted in dynamics.

The irreversibility of time is the mechanism that brings order out of chaos.

As you fight any war, sometimes the result may be defeat. Learn to be heroic even in your defeats.

By the time you're thirty, your worst enemy is yourself.

Not waiting for someone to give you what you can give yourself.

Don't count on others to hand your life to you.

I am undeniably afraid of the dark!
