“Each person is entitled to some version of God that seems real, yet many versions contradict one another. The God of any religion is only a fragment of God. This has to be true, because a being who is unbounded has no image, no role to play, no location either inside or outside the cosmos, whereas religions offer many images--father, mother, lawgiver, judge, ruler of the universe.” PersonsRealPlaySeemsMotherUniverseFatherRolesJudgingOffersVersionsBeing TrueCosmosRulersEntitledLocationFragmentsFather Mother Author:Deepak Chopra
“After Darwin, God's role changes from being the designer of all creatures great and small to being the designer of the laws of nature, from which natural selection can unfold, to being perhaps just the chooser of the laws. By the time God's role has been so diminished, he becomes a bit like a constitutional monarch, presiding ceremonially but not having any more work to do. That's a place for God if it makes people comfortable to keep God as the presider over the universe. I suppose that is satisfying for many.” PeopleIfsHas BeensLawUniverseBitsNaturalRolesCreaturesComfortableDesignerSatisfyingSelectionLaws Of NatureNatural SelectionMonarchs Author:Daniel Dennett

“The freedom of an individual depends upon that individual's freedom to alter his considerations of space, energy, time and life and his roles in it. If he cannot change his mind about these, he is then fixed and enslaved amidst barriers such as those of the physical universe, and barriers of his own creation. Man thus is seen to be enslaved by barriers of his own creation. He creates these barriers himself, or by agreeing with things which hold these barriers to be actual.” IfsMenMindUniverseIndividualEnergySpaceRolesCreationDependsFixedConsiderationBarriersLife And Time Author:L.

“If there is any sense of order to the universe, acting is what I am meant to do. I'm not manufactured. I know acting isn't real, that it's temporary.

“But innovation is more than a new method. It is a new view of the universe, as one of risk rather than of chance or of certainty. It is a new view of man's role in the universe; he creates order by taking risks. And this means that innovation, rather than being an assertion of human power, is an acceptance of human responsibility.” MenHumansMeanOrderUniverseChangeChanceViewsResponsibilityRolesRiskAcceptanceInnovationMethodCertaintyAssertionTaking RisksHuman Power Author:Peter Drucker
“Being an artist and having a following can be a very scary thing because idolization makes you question your inner role in the universe. A lot of people get caught up in this idea of, "Wow!
