Sam Kean
“No, what makes mad scientists mad isn’t their lack of logic or reason or scientific acumen. It’s that they do science too well, to the exclusion of their humanity.”
Sam Kean, The Icepick Surgeon: Murder, Fraud, Sabotage, Piracy, and Other Dastardly Deeds Perpetrated in the Name of Science

“Wer beruflich mit Musik zu tun hat, müsste dazu erzogen werden, Sinn dafür zu entwickeln, sich auch vielen anderen Wissensbereichen zuzuwenden, die nicht direkt mit Musik zu tun haben. Die technische Beherrschung eines Instruments, die für einen Berufsmusiker wesentlich ist, hat nur dann einen Sinn, wenn sie mit einem allgemeinen Erkenntnisprozess einhergeht, zu dem eine breite Basis von Wissen und Kultur gehören.”
Daniel Barenboim, Musik ist alles und alles ist Musik: Erinnerungen und Einsichten

Bojan Džodan
“Kada nauka ukaže na propuste u ovakvim romantičnim malverzacijama obično od sledbenika takvih ideja bude dočekana sa negodovanjem kao neko ko pokušava da sruši njihov zamak u pesku. Iako rušenje zamka u pesku može delovati okrutno, ono je tu da nas zaštiti od obmana, a osim toga nauka nam u tom procesu uvek nudi i svoju verziju priče koja je neizostavno još čarobnija. Istina, njenu priču je ponekada teže ispratiti, jer zahteva da se upoznamo sa fizikom, hemijom, matematikom, ali trud koji uložimo uvek je višestruko nagrađen.”
Bojan Džodan, Paralaksa

Albert Einstein
“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.”
Albert Einstein

Stephen Fry
“Books are no more threatened by Kindle than stairs by elevators.”
Stephen Fry
