“We are idealists and we are realists. We are dreamers and we are builders. We are experiencers and we are experimenters. We long for certainties, yet we ourselves are full of the ambiguities of the Mona Lisa and the I Ching. We ourselves are a part of the yin-yang of the world.”

— Physicist and writer Alan Lightman on our longing for absolutes in a relative world and what gives lasting meaning to our temporal lives — superb read, a rare miracle of the meeting point of the lucid and the luminous.
