Religious faith to W. H. Bragg was the willingness to stake his all on the hypothesis that Christ was right, and test it by a lifetime's experiment in charity.
Guglielmo MarconiThe mystery of life is certainly the most persistent problem ever placed before the thought of man.

The inability of science to solve it is absolute. This would be truly frightening were it not for faith.
Guglielmo MarconiIf we consider what science already has enabled men to know-the immensity of space, the fantastic philosophy of the stars, the infinite smallness of the composition of atoms, the macrocosm whereby we succeed only in creating outlines and translating a measure into numbers without our minds being able to form any concrete idea of it-we remain astounded by the enormous machinery of the universe.
