Additional quotes by Gerald M. Weinberg

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has Its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be In awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. - Albert Einstein (From “Death of a Genius,” by William Miller, LIFE Magazine, May 2, 1955 © 1955 Time Inc.)
