I Feel Personally Responsible For The Universes

"“Nature intended me for the tranquil pursuits of science, by rendering them my supreme delight. But the enormities of the times in which I have lived, have forced me to take a part in resisting them, and to commit myself on the boisterous ocean of political passions.”"

"“I maintain that the cosmic religious feeling is the strongest and noblest motive for scientific research.”"

"“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”"

"“I have feelings too. I am still human. All I want is to be loved, for myself and for my talent. ”"

"“One wants to live, of course, indeed one only stays alive by virtue of the fear of death, but I think, as I thought then, that it is better to die violently and not too old.”"

"“Fear not death for the sooner we die, the longer we shall be immortal.”"
