" "Where did the substance of the universe come from? . . If 0 equals ( + 1) + (-1),
then something which is 0 might just as well become + 1 and -1. Perhaps in an
infinite sea of nothingness, globs of positive and negative energy in equal-sized pairs
are constantly forming, and after passing through evolutionary changes, combining
once more and vanishing. We are in one of these globs between nothing and nothing
and wondering about it.

Additional quotes by Isaac Asimov
"A couple of months ago I had a dream, which I remember with the utmost clarity. (I don't usually remember my dreams.)
I dreamed I had died and gone to Heaven. I looked about and knew where I was-green fields, fleecy clouds, perfumed air, and the distant, ravishing sound of the heavenly choir. And there was the recording angel smiling broadly at me in greeting.
I said, in wonder, "Is this Heaven?"
The recording angel said, "It is."
I said (and on waking and remembering, I was proud of my integrity), "But there must be a mistake. I don't belong here. I'm an atheist."
"No mistake," said the recording angel.
"But as an atheist how can I qualify?"
The recording angel said sternly, "We decide who qualifies. Not you."
"I see," I said. I looked about, pondered for a moment, then turned to the recording angel and asked, "Is there a typewriter here that I can use?"
The significance of the dream was clear to me. I felt Heaven to be the act of writing, and I have been in Heaven for over half a century and I have always known this."
