Results from Classic Quotes:

In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time someting like that happened in politics or religion.: Carl Sagan (1934 - 1996), 1987 CSICOP Keynote Address
Not only does God play dice with the Universe - he sometimes casts them where they can't be seen.: Stephen Hawking (1942 - )
When I received the Nobel Prize, the only big lump sum of money I have ever seen, I had to do something with it. The easiest way to drop this hot potato was to invest it, to buy shares. I knew that World War II was coming and I was afraid that if I had shares which rise in case of war, I would wish for war. So I asked my agent to buy shares which go down in the event of war. This he did. I lost my money and saved my soul.: Albert Szent-Gyorgyi (1893 - 1986), The Crazy Ape
I think it's about time we voted for senators with breasts. After all, we've been voting for boobs long enough.: Claire Sargent, on women candidates, The World Almanac and Book of Facts, 1993
The three dots '...' here suppress a lot of detail -- maybe I should have used four dots.: Donald E. Knuth (1938 - )
We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other.: John Adams (1735 - 1826)
It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.: J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind of self-government; upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.: Unknown, (attributed incorrectly to James Madison)
How would it be if we discovered that aliens only stopped by earth to let their kids take a leak?: Jay Leno (1950 - )
Man is to himself the most wonderful object in nature; for he cannot conceive what the body is, still less what the mind is, and least of all how a body should be united to a mind. This is the consummation of his difficulties, and yet it is his very being.: Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1662), Pensees(II,72)
