Universe

It was as if the universe itself stretched out its finger to touch me. And in touching me, singling me out, it only heightened my awareness of my own insignificance. That was somehow very comforting. When you confront the absolute indifference of magnitudes and vistas so overwhelming, the swollen ego of your own self-important suffering is diminished. - Joan D. Vinge

Here we are in this wholly fantastic universe with scarcely a clue as to whether our existence has any real significance. - E. F. Schumacher

I know that much of the structure and plan of the universe is beyond my understanding and not at all similar to anything of our earthly world that I have experienced so far. I marvel at the intellect and attention to detail, the precision manifested by the workings of this great and often unseen force of which we are all a part. - Rosemary Altea

We live in a changing universe, and few things are changing faster than our conception of it. - Timothy Ferris

The basic laws of the Universe are simple, but because our senses are limited, we can’t grasp them. There is a pattern in creation. - Albert Einstein

It is clear that there is no classification of the Universe that is not arbitrary and full of conjectures. The reason for this is very simple: we do not know what kind of thing the universe is. - Jorge Luis Borges

In answer to the question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time. - Edward P. Tryon

We are taught by great actions that the universe is the property of every individual in it. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Today we no longer regard the universe as the cause of our own undeserved troubles but perhaps, on the contrary, as the last refuge from the mismanagement of our earthly affairs. - Rudolf Arnheim
