Max Planck


"Clairvoyance, the ideal of the scientist, who studies all the processes of the physical world, stems solely from the fact that this world is nothing but an image of the real world created by the human mind.

Thus we see ourselves, throughout our lives, subject to a higher power whose essence remains inaccessible to the approach of exact science but which no enlightened mind can ignore.

For he who reflects not only on a scientific but a metaphysical level, there are only two possible attitudes between which he has no choice: fear and revolt or confident acceptance."
