A physicist is an atom's way of knowing about atoms.


David Gurteen's comments: Everything in the universe including a human being is made of atoms. And a human being has the ability to study those atoms - including the ones that constitute his or her own body. Atoms studying themselves! Just think about this for a second. Don't you think this is marvelous?

Quotations are extremely effective at capturing and concisely communicating thoughts and ideas. They can be inspirational but more importantly quotations can help us reveal and assess the assumptions, values and beliefs that underlie the ways in which we perceive the world.

I have compiled over 800 quotations and short excerpts on this website. It is an eclectic mix but most of them are inspirational or insightful in nature and relate to knowledge, learning or personal development in some form.
