Jimmy Sangster quotes about
left-alone interfere left
Some things are best left alone. Such as interfering in things which are beyond our powers.
evil mind patterns
A benevolent mind, and the face assumes the patterns of benevolence. An evil mind, then an evil face.
creatures sufficient
We've restored life where life was extinct. It's no longer sufficient to bring the dead back to life. We must create from the beginning, we must build up our own creature, build it up from nothing.
enjoy-life too-much rooms
One can spend too much of one's life locked in stuffy rooms seeking out obscure truths, searching, researching, until one is too old to enjoy life.
ignorance science hands
There's a great difference between knowing that a thing is so, and knowing how to use that knowledge for the good of mankind. Thetrouble with a scientist is we quickly tire of our discoveries. We hand them over to people who are not ready for them, while we go off again into the darkness of ignorance, searching for other discoveries, which will be mishandled in just the same way when the time comes.
civilization answers certain
There are certain things for which civilization has no answer. But if you choose to meddle thus, then you must be prepared to facethe consequences, whatever they are.
