The stars are laboratories in which the evolution of matter proceeds in the direction of large molecules.

The past has revealed to me the structure of the future.

The end of the world: the wholesale internal introversion upon itself of the noosphere, which has simultaneously reached the uttermost limit of its complexity and its centrality . . . the overthrow of equilibrium, detaching the mind, furfilled at last, from its material matrix, so that it will henceforth rest with all its weight on God-Omega . . . critical point simultaneously of emergence and emersion, of maturation and evasion.

Man discovers that he is nothing else than evolution become conscious of itself.
