I'm saying that we should trust our intuition. I believe that the principles of universal evolution are revealed to us through intuition. And I think that if we combine our intuition and our reason, we can respond in an evolutionary sound way to our problems.

[Who owns the patent on this vaccine?] Well, the people, I would say. There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?

The worst tragedy that could have befallen me was my success. I knew right away that I was through - cast out.

When things get bad enough, then something happens to correct the course. And it's for that reason that I speak about evolution as an error-making and an error-correcting process. And if we can be ever so much better - ever so much slightly better - at error correcting than at error making, then we'll make it.

There is hope in dreams, imagination, and in the courage of those who wish to make those dreams a reality.

Are we being good ancestors?

I speak about universal evolution and teleological evolution, because I think the process of evolution reflects the wisdom of nature. I see the need for wisdom to become operative. We need to try to put all of these things together in what I call an evolutionary philosophy of our time.
