“An essential aspect of creativity is not being afraid to fail. Scientists made a great invention by calling their activities hypotheses and experiments.

Fate...is not the blind superstition or helplessness that waits stupidly for what may happen.

Its ministration is essential to the best educational results. Our own educational institutions should rest upon this divine basis.”

“Because past environmental destruction was the result of ignorance, we can easily forgive it. Today, we are better informed. Therefore, it's essential that we make an ethical examination of what we have inherited, what we are responsible for, and what we will pass on to coming generations. Ours is clearly a pivotal generation. We have global communication and yet confrontation is more common than dialogue.”
