No one who has understood even a fraction of what science has told us about the universe can fail to be in awe of both the cosmos and of science. – Julian Baggini
There’s an entire universe in every single tweet, and it all really depends on the content as far as how it’s going to spread. – Jack Dorsey
There should always be something gratuitous about art, just as there seems to be, according to the new-wave cosmologists, something gratuitous about the universe. – John Updike
Anyone who sets foot into the ‘Watchmen’ universe and isn’t just a little nervous should be given a few days of electroshock therapy. I’ve always considered ‘Watchmen’ to be one of the best graphic novels ever written, and when it came out back in 1986 I was as blown away as everyone else. Just masterful. – J. Michael Straczynski
God was alive when this universe exploded into existence. He was alive when Socrates drank his poison. He was the living God when William Bradford governed Plymouth Colony. He was the living God in 1966 when Thomas Altizer proclaimed him dead and Time magazine absolutely absurdly put it on the front cover. – John Piper
I think the ‘Saw’ universe, the ‘Saw’ brand, is too big to just let it just sit there on a shelf. – James Wan
When you speak directly at things and don’t say you’re going to try to do something or that you hope to do something, the universe will work with you. Think about it this way – a boomerang goes out and comes back to you if you throw it. If you throw it out at the universe, it will come back down to you on Earth. – J. B. Smoove
It’s odd that invoking the possibility of alien influences should itself be a sign of madness. I don’t see the need for it to explain history on earth, but I can’t see any reason why the universe shouldn’t be full of life. – Graham Hancock
In every other science fiction series, humans are at the top of the food chain. In the ‘Babylon 5’ universe, they’re in the bottom third. – J. Michael Straczynski
I went right to the ‘Guide to the Marvel Universe,’ which has every Marvel character from A-Z, and fortunately, I had every issue. I found ‘Deathlok,’ read about him there. – J. August Richards
I walk around feeling a sort of existential guilt all the time; and honestly for me this house is a way of feeling less guilty about the universe. – Julia Louis-Dreyfus
I cannot possibly conceive of my planet Earth as the centre of a three-tiered universe. I know rather that the sun, around which my planet Earth revolves, is a middle sized star in a galaxy called the Milky Way that has over a hundred billion other suns or stars within it. – John Shelby Spong
For me it’s a remarkable thing that there is a prize celebrating and honouring and making for a brief moment short fiction the centre of the literary universe. – Junot Diaz
If you look at the great superheroes in any universe, you will always find that they have the very best super villains opposing them. It’s because they are foils; they are people that the heroes play off of. – Jim Lee
The world, universe, God, whatever you call it, has so much more in store if you just sit back and relax and do what’s right in front of you. – Jane Lynch
Either we are in the universe to inhabit the eternity of our souls and grow real, or else we might as well dedicate our days to shopping and kill time watching talk-shows. – John O’Donohue
Repudiating the virtues of your world, criminals hopelessly agree to organize a forbidden universe. They agree to live in it. The air there is nauseating: they can breathe it. – Jean Genet
I admire our ancestors, whoever they were. I think the first self-conscious person must have shaken in his boots. Because as he becomes self-conscious, he’s no longer part of nature. He sees himself against nature. He looks at the vastness of the universe and it looks hostile. – John Shelby Spong
Music is all about training in harmony, training to understand and use musical energy for our greater pleasure by attuning to the natural laws of the universe. – Jane Siberry
I love telling stories. Creating a character, a world, a whole universe out of nothing. That part I can’t get enough of. – Greg Berlanti
I mean, I didn’t ever watch ‘Gilligan’s Island’ and think, ‘Those people are actors.’ I lived in West Virginia. Hollywood just felt like this total other universe. – Jennifer Garner
When I first came to India from Sri Lanka, people were surprised to see my toned arms. I had come right after the Miss Universe pageant. – Jacqueline Fernandez
One of the strengths of the DC Universe has been the strength of the rogues’ gallery. Often times they’re as famous – if not more infamous – than our heroes. – Jim Lee
There is no ‘off’ being John Cena: it’s always on. In a way, I think that has helped me, because over the years I have been able to be humble. I have been able to be humiliated in front of the WWE universe in a good way. – John Cena
In terms of my personal spirituality and everything else, it’s ever-evolving. I have a desire to want more out of the universe. But the older I get, the further I get from any specifics about that. – Jeff Nichols
