To boldly go where no one has gone before

At times, I get very lonely because people are afraid to talk to me or don't wait for me to write a response. I'm shy and tongue-tied at times. I find it difficult to talk to people who I don't know.

All that my work has shown is that you don't have to say that the way the universe began was the personal whim of God.

There are plenty of dead scientists I admire, but I can't think of any living ones. This is probably because it is only in retrospect that one can see who made the important contributions.

Not to take this web of dualities as a sign we are on the right track would be a bit like believing that God put fossils into the rocks in order to mislead Darwin about the evolution of life.

Real science can be far stranger than science fiction and much more satisfying.

I want to know why the universe exists, why there is something greater than nothing.
