Do Not Put Too Much Confidence In

The Mathematics Is Not There Till We Put It There.

It Is Reasonable To Hope That In The Not Too Distant Future We Shall Be Competent To Understand So Simple A Thing As A Star.

It Is One Thing For The Human Mind To Extract From The Phenomena Of Nature The Laws Which It Has Itself Put Into Them; It May Be A Far Harder Thing To Extract Laws Over Which It Has No Control. It Is Even Possible That Laws Which Have Not Their Origin In The Mind May Be Irrational, And We Can Never Succeed In Formulating Them.

The Idea Of A Universal Mind Or Logos Would Be, I Think, A Fairly Plausible Inference From The Present State Of Scientific Theory.

Our Ultimate Analysis Of Space Leads Us Not To A "here" And A "there," But To An Extension Such As That Which Relates "here" And "there." To Put The Conclusion Rather Crudely-space Is Not A Lot Of Points Close Together; It Is A Lot Of Distances Interlocked.
