Every year the inventions of science weave more inextricably the web that binds man to man, group to group, nation to nation.

One could almost phrase the motto of our modern civilization thus: Science is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Some things mankind can finish and be done with, but not ... science, that persists, and changes from ancient Chaldeans studying the stars to a new telescope with a 200-inch reflector and beyond; not religion, that persists, and changes from old credulities and world views to new thoughts of God and larger apprehensions of his meaning.

God has put within our lives meanings and possibilities that quite outrun the limits of mortality.

Atheism is a theoretical formulation of the discouraged life.

Every year the inventions of science weave more inextricably the web that binds man to man, group to group, nation to nation.

No man is the whole of himself; his friends are the rest of him.
