“Do not be ashamed of being poor, or of asking alms. Receive what is given you with humility, and accept a refusal meekly. Frequently call to mind Our Lady's journey into Egypt with her Holy Child, and of all the poverty, contempt and suffering they endured.

“Science is an intellectual journey, and to me, it's not the destination, it's the journeyto get there. It's a way of thinking and it's an intellectual curiosity, a desire to know how the world works, and to know what the fundamental principles of the world are, and to know our place in it. I think once we stop asking questions like "what is the age of the universe," or "how are the instructions of DNA carried out on a microscopic level," once we stop asking questions like that, we're dead.” ThinkingKnowsWorldWayAgeDesireUniverseLevelsPrinciplesKnow HowJourneyIntellectualAskingFundamentalsCuriosityDestinationInstructionDnaWay Of ThinkingAsking QuestionsFundamental PrinciplesIntellectual Curiosity Author:Alan Lightman

“My father took one hundred and thirty-two minutes to die. I counted. It happened on the Jellicoe Road. The prettiest road I’d ever seen, where trees made breezy canopies like a tunnel to Shangri-La. We were going to the ocean, hundreds of miles away, because I wanted to see the ocean and my father said that it was about time the four of us made that journey. I remember asking, 'What’s the difference between a trip and a journey?' and my father said, 'Narnie, my love, when we get there, you’ll understand,' and that was the last thing he ever said.” MadeSaidTwoWantedLastsRememberDiesFatherDifferencesFourHappenedTreeJourneyMinutesOceanHundredAskingMilesThirtyTunnelsMiles AwayPrettiestCanopyBreezyJellicoe RoadShangri Book:Jellicoe Road Source: Jellicoe Road
