"We are very very small. But we are profoundly capable of very very big things."
quote from the 2004 film Hawking starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Michael Brandon, Tom Ward.
picture displays a young Stephen Hawking reading THE GUARDIAN.
"We are very very small. But we are profoundly capable of very very big things."
"We are punished for our refusals. Every impulse that we strive to strangle broods in the mind and poisons us. The body sins once, and has done with its sin, for action is a mode of purification. Nothing remains then but the recollection of a pleasure, or the luxury of a regret. The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful. It has been said that the great events of the world take place in the brain. It is in the brain, and the brain only, that the great sins of the world take place also."
