Science Is A Wonderful Thing If One Does Not Have To Earn One's Living At It. One Should Earn One's Living By Work Of Which One Is Sure One Is Capable. Only When We Do Not Have To Be Accountable To Anybody Can We Find Joy In Scientific Endeavor.

You Might As Well Not Be Alive If You're Not In Awe Of God.

The Words Of Language, As They Are Written Or Spoken, Do Not Seem To Play Any Role In My Mechanism Of Thought. The Physical Entities Which Seem To Serve As Elements In Thought Are Certain Signs And More Or Less Clear Images.

This Crippling Of Individuals I Consider The Worst Evil Of Capitalism. Our Whole Educational System Suffers From This Evil. An Exaggerated Competitive Attitude Is Inculcated Into The Student, Who Is Trained To Worship Acquisitive Success As A Preparation For His Future.

I Believe, Indeed, That Overemphasis On The Purely Intellectual Attitude, Often Directed Solely To The Practical And Factual, In Our Education, Has Led Directly To The Impairment Of Ethical Values. I Am Not Thinking So Much Of The Dangers With Which Technical Progress Has Directly Confronted Mankind, As Of The Stifling Of Mutual Human Considerations By A 'matter-of-fact' Habit Of Thought Which Has Come To Lie Like A Killing Frost Upon Human Relations. Without 'ethical Culture' There Is No Salvation For Humanity.
