“A very young painter is seldom alone. If he is an art student, he is in an art school with other students. He does not yet know that one day he will have to face himself as a solitary creature enclosed in a space of four walls... and that he will have to be a self-propelled being, with no one at is side.” IfsKnowsDoeArtSelfSchoolFacesYoungSidesSpaceFourStudentsWallOne DaySolitudeCreaturesPainterSolitaryArt SchoolFour WallsArt Students Author:Pierre Alechinsky
“Knowledge and wonder are the dyad of our worthy lives as intellectual beings. Voyager did wonders for our knowledge, but performed just as mightily in the service of wonder and the two elements are complementary, not independent or opposed. The thought fills me with awe - a mechanical contraption that could fit in the back of a pickup truck, traveling through space for twelve years, dodging around four giant bodies and their associated moons, and finally sending exquisite photos across more than four light-hours of space from the farthest planet in our solar system.” YearsTwoBodyLightHoursSpaceWonderFourPlanetsFitMoonElementsIntellectualIndependentWorthyGiantsAweTwelveTruckExquisiteSolar SystemComplementaryPickupsPickup Trucks Author:Stephen Jay Gould

“My soul is an entangled knot, Upon a liquid vortex wrought By Intellect in the Unseen residing, And thine doth like a convict sit, With marline-spike untwisting it, Only to find its knottiness abiding; Since all the tools for its untying In four-dimensional space are lying, Wherein they fancy intersperses Long avenues of universes, While Klein and Clifford fill the void With one finite, unbounded homoloid, And think the Infinite is now at last destroyed.” ThinkingLongSoulLastsLyingUniverseSpaceFourToolsInfiniteIntellectDestroyedMy SoulFancyVoidUnseenFiniteAvenuesAbidingLiquidKnotsConvictsVortexFill The Void Author:James Clerk Maxwell
“That's for the best. Otherwise they might realize they're in prison. It can't be helped. You women are used to harems and prisons. A person can spend his whole life between four walls. If he doesn't think or feel that he's a prisoner, then he's not a prisoner. But then there are people for whom the whole planet is a prison, who see the infinite expanse of the universe, the millions of stars and galaxies that remain forever inaccessible to them. And that awareness makes them the greatest prisoners of time and space.” PeopleIfsThinkingFeelsPersonsWholeMightUsedUniverseStarsRealizingSpaceMillionsForeverFourAwarenessPlanetsWallInfinitePrisonWhole LifePrisonerGalaxyTime And SpaceInaccessibleExpanseHaremFour Walls Author:Vladimir Bartol

“Human beings, because we're so clever, have removed every single one of those population limiting factors... So nothing controls our increase in numbers except our own wish. Since I first started making television programs, the population of the world has increased three times. That's an extraordinary notion. Can it increase four times? Can it increase five times? The Earth is a finite size. So a point will eventually come when we run out of food, when we run out of space and when we will have destroyed most of the natural world. So ought we to do something about it before that happens?” WorldFirstsHumansHappensRunningEarthThreeWishNaturalHuman BeingsSpaceNumbersFiveFourTelevisionOughtProgramIncreaseExtraordinaryNotionSizePopulationCleverFactorsDestroyedFiniteThree TimesNatural World Author:David Attenborough
