“As an analogy one can imagine an intelligent amoeba with a good memory. As time progresses the amoeba is constantly splitting, each time the resulting amoebas having the same memories as the parent. Our amoeba hence does not have a life line, but a life tree.” DoeParentLinesMemoriesImagineProgressTreeIntelligentAnalogiesGood MemoriesSplittingAmoebaLife Line Author:Hugh Everett III

“The rapid progress of the sciences makes me sorry, at times, that I was born so soon. Imagine the power that man will have over matter, a few hundred years from now.

If only the moral sciences could be improved as well. Perhaps men would cease to be wolves to one another... and human beings could learn to be human.” IfsMenYearsHumansWellsMayMatterAgeBornHuman BeingsMoralImagineProgressProduceDiseaseMassHundredLaborDistanceSorryCeaseOld AgeRemoveGravityAgricultureFloatsRapids Author:Benjamin Franklin

“There is progress in the sense that the Prime Minister [Shinzō Abe] has proposed, outlined, as it were, directions for movement toward a peace treaty and the resolution of issues related to territorial problems.

I believe it is even hard to imagine that it can be any different, that we can agree to sign the documents that we are talking about without trusting each other or without cooperation. That is simply impossible even to imagine.” BelieveDifferentHardProblemI BelieveTalkingIssuesEnvironmentImagineProgressImpossibleMovementAgreeMinistersRelatedResolutionPrimeCooperationImagine ThatDocumentsPrime MinisterPromotingProposeTreatiesTerritorialAbeWithout TrustPeace TreatiesTrusting Each Other Author:Vladimir Putin
