Famous quotes containing the words probe and/or lost:
“Y’know scientists are funny. We probe and measure and dissect. Invent lights without heat, weigh a caterpillar’s eyebrow. But when it comes to really important things we’re as stupid as the caveman.... Like love. Makes the world go ‘round, but what do we know about it? Is it a fact? Is it chemistry? Electricity?”
—Martin Berkeley, and Jack Arnold. Helen Dobson (Lori Nelson)
“Poetry is like making a joke. If you get one word wrong at the end of a joke, you’ve lost the whole thing.”
—W.S. Merwin (b. 1928)
