“As participants in a mobile culture, our default is to move. God embraces our broken world, and I have no doubt that God can use our movement for good. But I am convinced that we lose something essential to our existence as creatures if we do not recognize our fundamental need for stability. Trees can be transplanted, often with magnificent results.

“Frequently, I have been asked if an experiment I have planned is pure or applied science; to me it is more important to know if the experiment will yield new and probably enduring knowledge about nature. If it is likely to yield such knowledge, it is, in my opinion, good fundamental research; and this is more important than whether the motivation is purely aesthetic satisfaction on the part of the experimenter on the one hand or the improvement of the stability of a high-power transistor on the other.” IfsKnowsHas BeensImportantHandsScienceMotivationOpinionKnowledgePureResearchImportanceFundamentalsEndureSatisfactionImprovementExperimentsYieldStabilityAestheticGood FunApplied ScienceTransistors Author:William Shockley
“Gradually, physicists began to realise that nature, at the atomic level, does not appear as a mechanical universe composed of fundamental building blocks, but rather as a network of relations, and that, ultimately, there are no parts at all in this interconnected web. Whatever we call a part is merely a pattern that has some stability and therefore captures our attention.” DoeUniverseLevelsAttentionBuildingRelationFundamentalsPatternsBlockRealisingCaptureStabilityPhysicistInterconnectedBuilding Blocks Author:Fritjof Capra
