1 " The acute experience of great beauty readily evokes a nameless yearning for something more than earth can offer. Elegant splendor reawakens our spirit’s aching need for the infinite, a hunger for more than matter can provide. "
― Thomas Dubay , The Evidential Power of Beauty: Science and Theology Meet
2 " We human beings are moved by music as no other animal is. Stranger still, it moves us rational animals apart from whether we can play it, read it, or even much understand it. Music reaches the passions without passing through the mind. Although some music calls forth enormous, in truth, life-long diligence from those who play it, those who have devoted no study whatever to listening to it are moved by it. As a consequence music is unique among human pursuits in being able to overcome the vast gulf between rare virtue and common aptitude. It is the most mathematical of the fine arts. It is science and fun together.19 "
3 " You can recognize truth by its beauty and simplicity.” —Richard Feynman, Nobel laureate in physics "
4 " Liberty is a gift and power that extends even to the determination of our eternal and self-chosen destiny. This is one reason a single person is of greater worth than the whole of the subhuman cosmos. "
