You kind of create your own moral universe. It's like, well, I like myself. If other people don't like me, then whatever. I'm out of here.
A golf course is the epitome of all that is purely transitory in the universe; a space not to dwell in, but to get over as quickly as possible.
As we gain more knowledge about materials and processes in the universe, that could open up benefits that we can't even imagine. But you have to be willing to fund science without knowledge of the benefits.
The Universe is the periodical manifestation of this unknown Absolute Essence.
You and I are all as much continuous with the physical universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean.
I am not a conventionally religious man, but in the wilderness I have come closest to finding myself and knowing the universe and accepting God - by which I mean accepting all that I don't know.
Studying whether there's life on Mars or studying how the universe began, there's something magical about pushing back the frontiers of knowledge. That's something that is almost part of being human, and I'm certain that will continue.
I wasn't the typical pageant girl - I was a little more nerdy, and they gave me a voice. I created the Queen of the Universe pageant, which is charity-based, to benefit UNESCO. For me, the most important thing is that contestants have a charity-based platform or charity ambition.
You are the center of your universe, and you can make anything happen.
You can, if you wish, think of it like the universe: Each case is a sun, and all the judges, lawyers and administrative personnel represent planets revolving around the case in fixed orbit, never getting closer.
We all live in a universe in which we're either asked to or are forced to accept certain premises about our employment without having the opportunity to verify them.
The world, universe, God, whatever you call it, has so much more in store if you just sit back and relax and do what's right in front of you.
I didn't choose acting. The universe did.
Secular humanists suspect there is something more gloriously human about resisting the religious impulse; about accepting the cold truth, even if that truth is only that the universe is as indifferent to us as we are to it.
Who knows where inspiration comes from. Perhaps it arises from desperation. Perhaps it comes from the flukes of the universe, the kindness of the muses.
There's life all over this universe, but the only life in the solar system is on earth, and in the whole universe we are the only men.
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.
Every legend, moreover, contains its residuum of truth, and the root function of language is to control the universe by describing it.
Even sleepers are workers and collaborators in what goes on in the Universe.
With the emergence of civilization, the rate of change shifted from hundreds of thousands of years to millennia. With the emergence of science as a way of knowing the universe, the rate of change shifted to centuries.
From this time on, the universe is built up into an aggregate of permanent objects connected by causal relations that are independent of the subject and are placed in objective space and time.
Without consciousness and intelligence, the universe would lack meaning.
There is no chance and anarchy in the universe. All is system and gradation. Every god is there sitting in his sphere.
What do I have to say to the universe? A soul ought to have something to say to the universe if it's going to be immortal.
I would suggest, merely as a metaphor here, but also as the basis for a scientific program to investigate the computational capacity of the universe, that this is also a reasonable explanation for why the universe is complex.
The human's place in the universe will be set in the scheme of evolution, the product of our biological inheritance.
For almost a century, the Universe has been known to be expanding as a consequence of the Big Bang about 14 billion years ago. However, the discovery that this expansion is accelerating is astounding. If the expansion will continue to speed up, the Universe will end in ice.
I have never grown out of the infantile belief that the universe was made for me to suck.
Albert Einstein when asked what he considered to be the most powerful force in the universe answered: Compound interest! What you have become is the price you paid to get what you used to want.
For me, a lot of my work has dealt with what it means to be at the center of the universe and how alienating and kind of seductive it is. A lot of my work is very aggressive and very visual, but at the same time, it has a lot of tension in it and makes you kind of uncomfortable sometimes.
I look for what needs to be done. After all, that's how the universe designs itself.
No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man's front embraces the whole universe.
There comes a point in your life when you realize how quickly time goes by, and how quickly it has gone. Then it really speeds up exponentially. With that, I think you start to put a lot of things into context; you start to see how huge the world is, and really, the universe.
The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness. When you become a mother, you are no longer the center of your own universe. You relinquish that position to your children.
The kingdom of God is an order of government established by divine authority. It is the only legal government that can exist in any part of the universe.
There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life.
