- Death…is no more than passing from one room into another. Important principles may and must be flexible. That is the essence of science: ask an impertinent question, and you are on the way to the pertinent answer. The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that men may become robots. Nature never deceives us; it is always us who deceive ourselves. You can never plan the future by the past. Time is a versatile performer. It flies, marches on, heals all wounds, runs out and will tell. The first in time and the first in importance of the influences upon the mind is that of nature. Death…is no more than passing from one room into another. Important principles may and must be flexible. |
