Animals, James A. Froude

Wild animals never kill for sport. Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his fellow creatures is amusing in itself.

- James A. Froude, Oceana, or, England and Her Colonies (1886) [C. Scribner's Sons, 1972, ISBN 083699096X, 9780836990966, 396 pages], p. 67

Death, Grand Inquisitor Silecio

Our bodies are prisons for our souls. Our skin and blood, the iron bars of confinement. But fear not. All flesh decays. Death turns all to ash. And thus, death frees every soul.

- Grand Inquisitor Silecio, in The Fountain, screenplay by Darren Aronofsky.

Mind, Isaac Asimov

It is the nature of the mind that makes individuals kin, and the differences in the shape, form or manner of the material atoms out of whose intricate relationships that mind is built are altogether trivial.

- Isaac Asimov, The Beginning and the End (1977) as quoted in Todd Siler, Breaking the Mind Barrier (1997)

Anemone, William Cullen Bryant

Within the woods,
Whose young and half transparent leaves scarce cast
A shade, gray circles of anemones
Danced on their stalks.

Researcher, Konrad Zuse

Der Glaube an eine bestimmte Idee gibt dem Forscher den Rückhalt für seine Arbeit. Ohne diesen Glauben wäre er verloren in einem Meer von Zweifeln und halbgültigen Beweisen.

Translation: The belief in a certain idea gives to the researcher the support for his work. Without this belief he would be lost in a sea of doubts and insufficiently verified proofs.

Moral Law, James A. Froude

History is a voice forever sounding across the centuries the laws of right and wrong. Opinions alter, manners change, creeds rise and fall, but the moral law is written on the tablets of eternity.

- James A. Froude

역사는 수 세기에 걸쳐 옳고 그름의 법칙을 울리는 목소리입니다. 의견도 변하고, 태도도 바뀌고, 교리도 흥하고 망하지만 도덕 규범은 영원의 현판에 새겨져 있습니다.

- 제임스 A. 프루드
