Thoughts That Win

"What is the universe computing? As far as we can tell, it is not producing a single answer to a single question... Instead the universe is computing itself. Powered by Standard Model software, the universe computes quantum fields, chemicals, bacteria, human beings, stars and galaxies. As it computes, it maps out its own spacetime geometry to the ultimate precision allowed by the laws of physics. Computation is existence."

-- Seth Lloyd and Y. Jack Ng

"The meaning of life is creative love. Not love as an inner feeling, as a private sentimental emotion, but love as a dynamic power moving out into the world and doing something original."

--Tom Morris, If Aristotle Ran General Motors

"Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking about them."

-- Alfred North Whitehead, 1911

"Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes."

-- E. W. Dijkstra

"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."
