In the forensic science course I took at university they used photographs of dead bodies. For ballistics they showed us a guy lying on the floor and his head had burst.

Without renouncing the support of physics it is possible for the physiology of the senses not only to pursue its own course of development but also to afford to physical science itself powerful assistance.

Fruitful discourse in science or theology requires us to believe that within the contexts of normal discourse there are some true statements.

People and especially theologians should try to familiarize themselves with scientific ideas. Of course science is technical in many respects but there are some very good books that try to set out some of the conceptual structure of science.

I suggest that the introductory courses in science at all levels from grade school through college be radically revised. Leave the fundamentals the so-called basics aside for a while and concentrate the attention of all students on the things that are not known.

Of course in science there are things that are open to doubt and things need to be discussed. But among the things that science does know evolution is about as certain as anything we know.

Anyone who attempts to generate random numbers by deterministic means is of course living in a state of sin.

I think it's a terrible thing to write and not enjoy it. It's a sad thing. But of course a lot of people do work because they need to eat. And we all need to eat but that's not the only reason to work. You couldn't have paid me not to write.

Deep down I reckon the sweetest moment will come when it's finally all over. When at last I know that I can stop fighting. Of course it'll also be a little sad. The sweetest moments y'know always come with just a little sadness.

Of course it's true: the public want to see young people - young people are the people who go to the cinema. It's a sad fact of life but you've got to accept it and not whine about it.
