• Darwin was one of our finest specimens. He did superbly what human beings are designed to do: manipulate social information to personal advantage. The information in question was the prevailing account of how human beings, and all organisms, came to exist; Darwin reshaped it in a way that radically raised his social status. When he died in 1882, his greatness was acclaimed in newspapers around the world, and he was buried in Westminster Abbey, not far from the body of Isaac Newton. Alpha-male territory.

• Creo que la religión hace mucho daño, no sólo en nombre de la religión, sino de hecho. ... Mucha gente hace cosas sencillamente horribles por creencias religiosas sinceras, no utilizando la religión como tapadera, como puede haber hecho Sadam Husein, sino realmente porque creen que eso es lo que Dios quiere que hagan, remontándonos hasta Abraham, dispuesto a sacrificar a Isaac porque Dios le dijo que lo hiciera. Poner a Dios por delante de la humanidad es algo terrible.

• La división entre religión y ciencia es relativamente nueva. Isaac Newton El primero que descubrió las leyes por las que la gravedad sujetaba a los planetas e incluso a las estrellas, quedó lo suficientemente impresionado por la escala y la regularidad del universo como para atribuirlo todo a Dios.

• John XXI was a very great pope and he's the one who actually corrected the liturgy. He did so because of his friend Jules Isaac, a French Jewish historian who was a friend of John Paul, of John 23rd, and he convinced him and he changed the liturgy, no more Jew, the perfidious Jew and so forth and now, and don't speak any more of the Jews killing Christ. Things have changed.

• La mayoría de las veces, queremos que tenga alas de hada y esparza polvo de hada y brille como una preciosa estrellita, dispensando nada más que buenos momentos a todo el mundo, como una especie de híbrido de Campanilla y el Genio de Aladino. Pero el Dios de la Biblia, el Dios de Abraham, Isaac y Jacob, es una columna de fuego y de humo.

• Great scientific minds, from Claudius Ptolemy of the second century to Isaac Newton of the seventeenth, invested their formidable intellects in attempts to deduce the nature of the universe from the statements and philosophies contained in religious writings.... Had any of these efforts worked, science and religion today might be one and the same. But they are not.

• I believe there’s someone out there for everyone,” he {Isaac} says, “and when you meet that person, sometimes you know right away they are who you were meant to be with. And sometimes, years can go by before you let yourself believe that the feeling you’ve had about a person for so long, is actually love. And what a waste that is.

• Always' was a promise! How can you just break the promise?" "Sometimes people don't always understand the promises they're making when they make them," I said. Isaac shot me a look. "Right, of course. But you keep the promise anyway. That's what love is. Love is keeping the promise anyway. Don't you believe in true love?" I didn't answer. I didn't have an answer. But I thought that if true love did exist, that was a pretty good definition of it.

• How quickly do we grow accustomed to wonders. I am reminded of the Isaac Asimov story Nightfall, about the planet where the stars were visible only once in a thousand years. So awesome was the sight that it drove men mad. We who can see the stars every night glance up casually at the cosmos and then quickly down again, searching for a Dairy Queen.
