A New Idea Comes Suddenly And In

We Still Do Not Know One Thousandth Of One Percent Of What Nature Has Revealed To Us.

Mankind Invented The Atomic Bomb, But No Mouse Would Ever Construct A Mousetrap.

Through The Release Of Atomic Energy, Our Generation Has Brought Into The World The Most Revolutionary Force Since Prehistoric Man's Discovery Of Fire. This Basic Force Of The Universe Cannot Be Fitted Into The Outmoded Concept Of Narrow Nationalisms.

All Our Thoughts And Concepts Are Called Up By Sense-experiences And Have A Meaning Only In Reference To These Sense-experiences. On The Other Hand, However, They Are Products Of The Spontaneous Activity Of Our Minds; They Are Thus In No Wise Logical Consequences Of The Contents Of These Sense-experiences. If, Therefore, We Wish To Grasp The Essence Of A Complex Of Abstract Notions We Must For The One Part Investigate The Mutual Relationships Between The Concepts And The Assertions Made About Them; For The Other, We Must Investigate How They Are Related To The Experiences.

An Expert Is A Person Who Has Few New Ideas; A Beginner Is A Person With Many.
