You can never be overdressed or overeducated.
Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves are a part of the mystery we are trying to solve.

The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.

Education consists mainly of what we have unlearned.
Anything that gives us new knowledge gives us an opportunity to be more rational.
