We are prisoners of our own metaphors, metaphorically speaking.

You don't belong to you. You belong to the Universe and you're here to serve.

The individual can take initiatives without anybody's permission. Only individuals can think. Only the individual disregards his fears and commits himself exclusively to reforming the human environment.

The more for whom we strive to serve, the greater effectiveness we will have.

The reward for being a good problem solver is to be heaped with more and more difficult problems to solve

We speak erroneously of "artificial" materials, "synthetics", and so forth. The basis for this erroneous terminology is the notion that Nature has made certain things which we call natural, and everything else is "man-made", ergo artificial. But what one learns in chemistry is that Nature wrote all the rules of structuring; man does not invent chemical structuring rules; he only discovers the rules. All the chemist can do is find out what Nature permits, and any substances that are thus developed or discovered are inherently natural. It is very important to remember that.

God is the great comprehensive a priori integrity of Universe within which human beings find themselves to be operating.
