"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

The universe is not required to be in perfect harmony with human ambition.
In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time someting like that happened in politics or religion."

Love the failure quote. Of course, the only true failure is one actually gives up . . . until then, it's just a learning process.
I've always believed there is a reason why the road in front of us is filled with twists and turns. If we could see the length of the journey, or the obstacles in our way, we might never take the first step. So much better to proceed in blind ignorance and blissful wonder.
