A couple of quotes from Sean Carroll

J.R.R. Tolkien knew what he was doing. The secret to getting many things done is to think of each one of them as a procrastination strategy for avoiding the others.

and

The world is not magic — and that’s the most magical thing about it.

plus a bonus

We are part of the universe that has developed a remarkable ability: We can hold an image of the world in our minds. We are matter contemplating itself.

Ok here is my funny quote...probably not even close, anyway....

This is from the Babylon Bee but I heard it on a podcast.

Q: What has God done for me lately?

A: Is that air you're breathing? Are your lungs processing that air, oxygenating your blood to feed your brain to allow you to think and live? Is this process not a miracle?

 

So next time someone asks you what has God done for me lately, ask them if that's air they're breathing...lol
