Science, like art, religion, commerce, warfare, and even sleep, is based on presuppositions.

How can cosmic religious feeling be communicated from one person to another, if it can give rise to no definite notion of a God and no theology? In my view, it is the most important function of art and science to awaken this feeling and keep it alive in those who are receptive to it.

All warfare is based on deception.

He who possesses art and science has religion; he who does not possess them, needs religion.

They blended religion and art and science because, at base, science is no more than an investigation of a miracle we can never explain, and art is an interpretation of that miracle.

Commerce unites; religion divides
