Probe Lost

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)

    A woman who’d lost her first son
    consoled us with an angel gone ahead
    to pray for our family—
    gone into that sky
    seeking oxygen,
    gone into autopsy,
    Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
