More From Henri Poincare
- "If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, and if nature were not worth knowing, life would not be worth living."
- "The scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful."
- "Science is built up of facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house."

- "To make a rock’n’roll record, technology is the least important thing."― Keith Richards
- "I have had the good fortune to experience both the limelight and the traffic light as a musician. I did my first recording on my own and it was available at concerts. The second to seventh were released on small and then large labels. My eighth to 14th were done under my own steam once again, but with the benefit of the Internet."― Jane Siberry
- "If there were no poetry on any day in the world, poetry would be invented that day. For there would be an intolerable hunger."― Muriel Rukeyser
