Georges Bataille (1897 – 1962):

“Tell me, what is it you plan
to do
with your one wild and precious
life?”

“Instructions for living a
life.
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.”
Jared Diamond (1937 - ):
“Science is often
misrepresented as "the body of knowledge acquired by performing replicated
controlled experiments in the laboratory." Actually, science is something
broader: the acquisition of reliable knowledge about the world.”
Stephen Jay Gould (1941 - 2002):
“Life is short, and potential
studies infinite. We have a much better chance of accomplishing something
significant when we follow our passionate interests and work in areas of
deepest personal meaning.”
