Author of quotes: Alfred North Whitehead

To penetrate the nature of ordinary phenomena, it requires a very extraordinary mind.

Dreams of great dreamers are never fulfilled, they are passed on to others.

Dog jumps in your lap because he loves you; a cat - because she's so warm.
(If the dog pronostics on your lap, it is because she loves you but if a cat does the same thing, it's because his lap is warmer.)
