I think that the appetite for mystery, the enthusiasm for that which we do not understand, is healthy and to be fostered.

Additional quotes by Richard Dawkins

What is the best way of countering the sluggish habitutation brought about by our gradual crawl from babyhood? We can't actually fly to another planet. But we can recapture that sense of having just tumbled out to life on a new world by looking at our own world in unfamiliar ways.
