“How do we change the way science is taught? Ask anybody how many teachers truly made a difference in their life, and you never come up with more than the fingers on one hand. You remember their names, you remember what they did, you remember how they moved in front of the classroom. You know why you remember them? Because they were passionate about the subject. You remember them because they lit a flame within you. They got you excited about a subject you didn't previously care about, because they were excited about it themselves. That's what turns people on to careers in science and engineering and mathematics. That's what we need to promote. Put that in every classroom, and it will change the world.”

“I stand on a vast grass field of many gently sloping hills. It is night, yet the sky is bright. There is no sun, but a hundred blazing blue stars, each shining in a long river of nebulous cloud. The air is warm, pleasant, fragrant with the perfume of a thousand invisible flowers. In the distance a stream of people walk toward a large vessel of some type, nestled between the hills. The ship is violet, glowing; the bright rays that stab forth from it seem to reach to the stars. Somehow I know that it is about to leave and that I am supposed to be on it. Yet, before I depart, there is something I have to discuss with Lord Krishna. He stands beside me on the wide plain, his gold flute in his right hand, a red lotus slower in his left. His dress is simple, as is mine - long blue gowns that reach to the ground. Only he wears a single jewel around his neck - the brilliant Kaustubha gem, in which the destiny of every soul can be seen. He does not look at me but toward the vast ship, and the stars beyond. He seems to be waiting for me to speak, but for some reason I cannot remember what he said last. I only know that I am a special case. Because I do not know what to ask, I say what is most on my mind. "When will I see you again, my Lord?" He gestures to the vast plain, the thousands of people leaving. "The earth is a place of time and dimension. Moments here can seem like an eternity there. It all depends on your heart. When you remember me, I am there in the blink of an eye." "Even on earth?" He nods. "Especially there. It is a unique place. Even the gods pray to take birth there." "Why that, my Lord?" He smiles faintly. His smile is bewitching. It has been said, I know, that the smile of the Lord has bewildered the minds of the angels. It has bewildered mine. "One quest always leads to another question. Some things are better to wonder about." He turns toward me finally, his long black hair blowing in the soft night breeze. The stars reflect in his black pupils; the whole universe is there. The love that flows from him is the sweetest ambrosia in all the heavens. Yet it breaks my heart to feel because I know it will soon be gone. "It is all maya," he says. "Illusion." "Will I get lost in this illusion, my Lord?" "Of course. It is to be expected. You will be lost for a long time.”

“Bekleyin' demişti. 'Burada bekleyin. Onlar size gelecek.' 'Kimler?' diye sormuştu Filipinli. 'Hayatının anlamını bulmuş olanlar. Hayatlarını adayacakları şeyleri bulmuş olanlar gelecek. Siz de kalplerini söküp, yerine, o şeyleri koyacaksınız. Sonra da kalpleri fırlatıp atacaksınız!' 'Ama...' demişti kızılderili. Kalpleri olmadan nasıl hayatta kalırlar?' 'Göreceksiniz!' demişti bina. 'Peki ya kimse gelmezse?' diye sormuştu Filipinli. 'Kim kalbinden vazgeçecek kadar kendini birşeye adayabilir ki?' 'Onu da göreceksiniz!' demişti bina. 'Ya hayatlarının anlamını bulamayanlar?' diye söze girmişti kızılderili. 'Onlar ne olacak?' 'Onlar da, göğüslerinde birer et parçasıyla, canlı canlı çürüyecekler. Ve buna da yaşamak demeye devam edecekler!' Son soruyu Filipinli sormuştu: 'Neden şimdi?' Kimbilir bugün kadar kaç kişi hayatını birşeylere adadı? Neden şimdi çıktın ortaya?' Son kez konuşmuştu bina: 'Çünkü DERDA adında bir çocuk doğdu!”
