The time has come to realise that an interpretation of the universeโeven a positivist oneโremains unsatisfying unless it covers the interior as well as the exterior of things; mind as well as matter. The true physics is that which will, one day, achieve the inclusion of man in his wholeness in a coherent picture of the world.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinYou have told me, O God, to believe in hell. But you have forbidden me to think...of any man as damned
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinThe future belongs to those who give the next generation reason for hope.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinInstead of standing on the shore and proving to ourselves that the ocean cannot carry us, let us venture on its waters just to see.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinThe outcome of the world, the gates of the future, the entry into the super-human - these are not thrown open to a few of the privileged nor to one chosen people to the exclusion of all others. They will open only to an advance of all together, in a direction in which all together can join and find completion in a spiritual renovation of the earth.
