“ We must always remember with gratitude and admiration the first sailors who steered their vessels through storms and mists, and increased our knowledge of the lands of ice in the South. 我们必须永远怀着感激和钦佩的心情记住第一批水手,他们驾驶着自己的船只穿过风暴和浓雾,增进了我们对南方冰原的了解。 Roald Amundsen 罗阿尔·阿蒙森
“ So teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. 求你指教我们怎样数算自己的日子,好叫我们专心求智慧。 Holy Bible 圣经
“ Man masters nature not by force but by understanding. This is why science has succeeded where magic failed: because it has looked for no spell to cast on nature. 人驾驭自然不是靠武力,而是靠理智。这就是为什么科学在魔法失败的地方取得了成功:因为它没有向大自然施咒。 Jacob Bronowski 布鲁诺维奇
