Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.

Whence come I and whither go I? That is the great unfathomable question. Science has no answer to it.

Science cannot tell us a word about why music delights us, of why and how an old song can move us to tears.

Our mind, by virtue of a certain finite, limited capability, is by no means capable of putting a question to Nature that permits a continuous series of answers. The observations, the individual results of measurements, are the answers of Nature to our discontinuous questioning.

If you cannot - in the long run - tell everyone what you have been doing, your doing has been worthless.

For eternally and always there is only now, one and the same now; the present is the only thing that has no end.

We do not belong to this material world that science constructs for us. We are not in it; we are outside. We are only spectators. The reason why we believe that we are in it, that we belong to the picture, is that our bodies are in the picture. Our bodies belong to it. Not only my own body, but those of my friends, also of my dog and cat and horse, and of all the other people and animals. And this is my only means of communicating with them.
