WONDER
Mystery
creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to
understand.
-- Neil Armstrong

feel no need for any other faith than my faith in the
kindness of human beings...I am so absorbed in the wonder
of earth and the life upon it that I cannot think of
heaven and angels."
-- Pearl

"The
more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders
and realities of the universe, the less taste we shall
have for destruction."

Carson

a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder,
he needs the companionship of at least one adult who
can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement
and mystery of the world we live in.

Let
both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead
of its terrors. Together let us explore the stars,
conquer the deserts, eradicate disease, tap the ocean
depths, and encourage the arts and commerce.

"This
focus on money and power may do wonders in the marketplace,
but it creates a tremendous crisis in our society.
People who have spent all day learning how to sell
themselves and to manipulate others are in no position
to form lasting friendships or intimate relationships...
Many Americans hunger for a different kind of society
-- one based on principles of caring, ethical and
spiritual sensitivity, and communal solidarity. Their
need for meaning is just as intense as their need
for economic security."
-- Rabbi
Michael Lerner

The
happy Union of these States is a wonder; their Constitution
a miracle; their example the hope of Liberty throughout
the world.
-- James

“The
journey, not the destination, becomes a source of wonder.”
- Loreena McKennitt

"...Why
is compassion not part of our established curriculum,
an inherent part of our education? Compassion, awe,
wonder, curiosity, exaltation, humility - these are
the very foundation of any real civilisation, no longer
the prerogatives, the preserves of any one church,
but belonging to everyone, every child in every school."
-- Yehudi
Menuhin

Whether
sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's
heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing child-like
appetite of what's next, and the joy of the game of
living. In the center of your heart and my heart there
is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages
of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men
and from the infinite, so long are you young.
-- Samuel Ullman
The
corporate grip on opinion in the United States is
one of the wonders of the Western world.
No First World country has ever managed to eliminate
so entirely from its media all objectivity - much
less dissent.
-- Gore Vidal
