More From Freeman Dyson

Coming to terms with the rhythms of women's lives means coming to terms with life itself, accepting the imperatives of the body rather than the imperatives of an artificial, man-made, perhaps transcendentally beautiful civilization. emphasis on the male work-rhythm is an emphasis on infinite possibilities; emphasis on the female rhythms is an emphasis on a defined pattern, on limitation.

The only basis for even talking about global warming is the predictions spewed out by computer models. the only quote/unquote "evidence" of global warming is what models are predicting the climate and the weather will be in the next 50 to 100 years. now, what those models spit out is only as good as the data that's put in, and it's an absolute joke. in terms of science, it's a total joke. there is no warming, global or otherwise!

We wish we could have been there for you. we didn't have many role models of our own--we latched on to the foolish love of oscar wilde and the well-versed longing of walt whitman because nobody else was there to show us an untortured path. we were going to be your role models. we were going to give you art and music and confidence and shelter and a much better world. those who survived lived to do this. but we haven't been there for you. we've been here. watching as you become the role models.

It would drive a person crazy to dope out really what does divide the two parties. prosperity don't divide the two parties, for under either administration the poor get poorer and the rich get richer.

There should really not be anything gratuitous in a work of art. sometimes what seems as if it's gratuitous may be a passage in which a character is being characterized so that the reader comes to know him or her better.

The rich philistinism emanating from advertisements is due not to their exaggerating (or inventing) the glory of this or that serviceable article but to suggesting that the acme of human happiness is purchasable and that its purchase somehow ennobles the purchaser.
