When I Examine Myself And My Methods Of Thought, I Come To The Conclusion That The Gift Of Fantasy Has Meant More To Me Than My Talent For Absorbing Positive Knowledge.

The Longing To Behold This Pre-established Harmony [of Phenomena And Theoretical Principles] Is The Source Of The Inexhaustible Patience And Perseverance With Which Planck Has Devoted Himself ... The State Of Mind Which Enables A Man To Do Work Of This Kind Is Akin To That Of The Religious Worshiper Or The Lover; The Daily Effort Comes From No Deliberate Intention Or Program, But Straight From The Heart.

[o]nly If Every Individual Strives For Truth Can Humanity Attain A Happier Future; The Atavisms In Each Of Us That Stand In The Way Of A Friendlier Destiny Can Only Thus Be Rendered Ineffective.

I Do Not Believe In The God Of Theology Who Rewards Good And Punishes Evil.
