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)

    “To regard one’s immortality as an exchange of matter is as strange as predicting the future of a violin case once the expensive violin it held has broken and lost its worth.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
