Philosophy is like a mother who gave birth to and endowed all the other
sciences. Therefore one should not scorn her in her nakedness and poverty,
but should hope, rather, that part of her Don Quixote dieal will live on
in her children so that they do not sink into philistinism.
Strange is our situation here upon earth.
Since I do not foresee that atomic energy is to be a great boon for a
long time, I have to say that for the present it is a menace. Perhaps
it is well that it should be. It may intimidate the human race to bring
order into its international affairs, which, without the pressure of
fear, it undoubtedly would not do.
It is difficult even to attach a precise meaning to the term "scientific
truth". "Religious truth" conveys nothing clear to me at all.
The pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, an almost fanatical love of
justice, and the desire for personal independence—these are the features
of the Jewish tradition which make me thank my lucky stars that I belong
to it.
In the philosophical sense there is, in my opinion, no specifically
Jewish point of view.
Thought is an end in itself, like music.
思想是目的本身,...
A butterfly is not a mole; but that is not something any butterfly
should regret.
Every man has his own cosmology and who can say that his own theory is
right.
I believe in the brotherhood of man and the uniqueness of the
individual. But if you ask me to prove what I believe, I can't. You
know them to be true but you could spend a whole lifetime without being
able to prove them. There comes a point where the mind takes a higher
plane of knowledge, but can never prove how it got there. All great
discoveries have involved such a leap.
...同样的,人的心智可以攀登知识的高峰,却永远无法解释其中的过程。所有伟
大的发现都有类似的情况。
The deeper we search, the more we find there is to know, and as long as
human life exists I believe that it will always be so.
