Famous Quotes & Sayings

Steve Earle

My spiritual system is 12-step programs. That's the only one I've ever had. I didn't have one before that.

Anton LaVey

ALL religions of a spiritual nature are inventions of man. He has created an entire system of gods with nothing more than his carnal brain. Just because he has an ego, and cannot accept it, he has to externalize it into some great spiritual device which he calls God.

Rob Zombie

Richard Louv

All spiritual life begins with a sense of wonder, and nature is a window into that wonder.

Richard Louv

Prize the natural spaces and shorelines most of all, because once they're gone, with rare exceptions they're gone forever. In our bones we need the natural curves of hills, the scent of chapparal, the whisper of pines, the possibility of wildness. We require these patches of nature for our mental health and our spiritual resilience.

Jim Fox

Her perspective led me into self-discovery. I got to see the other side.

William Least Heat-Moon

Without the errors, wrong turns and blind alleys, without the doubling back and misdirection and fumbling and chance discoveries, there was not one bit of joy in walking the labyrinth.

Jacob Bronowski

The progress of science is the discovery at each step of a new order which gives unity to what had seemed unlike.

James Randi

Science is best defined as a careful, disciplined, logical search for knowledge about any and all aspects of the universe, obtained by examination of the best available evidence and always subject to correction and improvement upon discovery of better evidence. What's left is magic. And it doesn't work.

Friedrich August von Hayek

Competition is like experimentation in science, a discovery process, and it must rely on the self interest of producers, it must allow them to use their knowledge for their purposes, because nobody else possesses the information

Joichi Ito

In a world where discovery is more important than delivery, it's the people who find, remix and direct attention to old stuff that should be rewarded, not the people who deliver it or sit on it waiting for someone to show up.

Luc de Clapiers

We ought never to be afraid to repeat an ancient truth, when we feel that we can make it more striking by a neater turn, or bring it alongside of another truth, which may make it clearer, and thereby accumulate evidence. It belongs to the inventive faculty to see clearly the relative state of things, and to be able to place them in connection; but the discoveries of ages gone by belong less to their first authors than to those who make them practically useful to the world.

Luc de Clapiers

A new principle is an inexhaustible source of new views.

Louis Pasteur

To know how to wonder and question is the first step of the mind toward discovery.

Secularism is a religion, a religion that is understood. It has no mysteries, no mumblings, no priests, no ceremonies, no falsehoods, no miracles, and no persecutions.

Yoko Ono

Every moment in our lives is a miracle we should enjoy instead of ignoring.

Deborah Williams

I really didn't think we were going to get out of there alive. It really was a miracle from God.

Johannes Kepler

He who will please the crowd and for the sake of the most ephemeral renown will either proclaim those things which nature does not display or even will publish genuine miracles of nature without regard to deeper causes is a spiritually corrupt person... With the best of intentions I publicly speak to the crowd (which is eager for things new) on the subject of what is to come.

Ogden Nash

Where there is a monster, there is a miracle.

Ogden Nash

When there are monsters there are miracles.

Og Mandino

I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why would the miracle which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?
