Quotes
- “Gambini was addicted to asking the sort of ultimate questions about which one could speculate endlessly with no fear of ever arriving at a solution.”
- “We’re talking about something we all want very much to find. And that automatically makes Ed’s conclusions suspect.”
- “It had occurred to Rimford, at about the time he approached fifty, that the chief drawback in contemplating the enormous gulfs of time and space that constitute the bricks and mortar of the cosmologist is that one acquires a dismaying perception of the handful of years allotted a human being.”
- “Ah, Lord, if I doubt You, it is perhaps because You hide Yourself so well.”
- “Secrecy is a compulsive reflex in this country. It strangles thought, delays scientific progress, and destroys integrity.”
- ““I can’t imagine,” said Dupre, “a better way to unnerve people than to tell them there’s no cause for alarm.””
