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)
“Six months at most after they get here, these young people—and they are mostly young who come—have lost every idea they had, except flirtation and temperature.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
