“If there was one overriding element to Faraday's character, it was humility. His 'conviction of deficiency,' as he called it, stemmed in part from his deep religiosity and affected practically every facet of his life. Thus Faraday approached both his science and his everyday conduct unhampered by ego, envy, or negative emotion. In his work, he assumed the inevitability of error and failure; whenever possible, he harnessed these as guides toward further investigation. Faraday adhered to no particular school of scientific thought. Nor did he flinch when a favored hypothesis fell to the rigors of experiment.”

“We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life! [...] what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?”

“I close my eyes, and this image floats beside me. A sweaty toothed mad man with a stare that pounds my brain. His hands reach out and choke me, and all the time he's mumbling. “Truth, truth.” Like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold. You push it, stretch it, but it'll never be enough. You kick at it, beat it, it'll never cover any of us. From the moment we enter crying, to the moment we leave dying, it'll just cover your face, as you wail and cry and scream.”

“TODD: Well, listen, Neil. I-I appreciate this concern, but I-I'm not like you.All right? You, you, you say things and people listen. I'm, I'm not like that. NEIL: Don't you think you could be? TODD: No! I--I, I don't know, but that's not the point. The, the, the point is that there's nothing you can do about it, so you can just butt out. I can take care of myself just fine. All right? NEIL: No. TODD: What do you mean, "no"? NEIL: No.”

“هیگر پسرها را تماشا کرد و پس از لحظه ای پرسید: "آقایون میکس و اورستریت و اندرسن، شما اصولا چپ دست اید؟" "خیر، آقا" "پس چرا با دست چپ غذا می خورید؟" پسرها به یکدیگر نگاه کردند. ناکس از طرف جمع توضیح داد: "فکر کردیم بد نیست که عادت های قدیمی رو ترک کنیم آقا." "آقای اورستریت، مگه عادت های قدیمی چه عیبی دارند؟" ناکس تذکر داد: "زندگی بدون تفکر و ابتکار رو تثبیت می کنند. ذهن آدم رو هم محدود می کنند." هیگر کاملا جدی گفت: "آقای اورستریت، بهتون توصیه می کنم کمتر به فکر ترک عادت های قدیمی باشید و بیشتر به عادت های خوب برای درس خوندن فکر کنید. متوجه منظورم هستید که؟”

“در حالی که پسرها آهسته به سر جای شان بر می گشتند، کیتینگ گفت: "اگر درباره ی مسئله ای مطمئن هستید، خودتون رو وادارید که به یک نحو دیگه ای درباره اش فکر کنید، حتی اگه بدونید از دیدگاه تازه ی شما نادرست یا احمقانه است. وقتی مطلبی رو می خونید، تنها فکر نویسنده رو مدنظر قرار ندید؛ کمی درنگ کنید و ببینید نظر خودتون درباره ی اون موضوع چیه." "باید تلاش کنید بچه ها که صدای خودتون رو بازیابید و هر قدر دیرتر شروع کنید امکان دستیابی به این هدف رو کمتر می کنید. ثارو گفته که عمر اکثر انسان ها در یأسی خاموش سپری می شود. چرا باید به یک چنین زندگی ای تن در بدیم؟ خطر کنید و در راهی جدید قدم بگذارید. همین حالا!”
