The Dying Of The Light

A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.
— Max Planck

Branches Everywhere

All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.
All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life,
lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence
and leading the individual towards freedom.
— Albert Einstein

"More For Me"

Passing

And all the things that we own are never ours alone,
no, they just pass through our hands in succession.
— Peter Hammill 'Material Possession'

Leading The Follower

Look. You've got it all wrong.
You don't need to follow me.
You don't need to follow anybody!
You've got to think for yourselves.
 — Monty Python 'The Life Of Brian'
