“Nature does not consist entirely, or even largely, of problems designed by a Grand Examiner to come out neatly in finite terms, and whatever subject we tackle the first need is to overcome timidity about approximating.” (Sir Harold Jeffreys & Bertha S Jeffreys, “Methods of Mathematical Physics”, 1946)
"The equations of physics have in them incredible simplicity, elegance and beauty. That in itself is sufficient to prove to me that there must be a God who is responsible for these laws and responsible for the universe" (Paul Davies, 1984)
“Nothing in the universe is contingent, but all things are conditioned to exist and operate in a particular manner by the necessity of the divine nature.” (Baruch Spinoza)
“What you can show using physics, forces this universe to continue to exist. As long as you're using general relativity and quantum mechanics you are forced to conclude that God exists.” (Frank Tipler)
“In our study of natural objects we are approaching the thoughts of the Creator, reading his conceptions, interpreting a system that is His and not ours.” (Louis Agassiz)
“What one man calls God, another calls the laws of physics.” (Nikola Tesla)
"The idea of a universal mind or Logos would be, I think, a fairly plausible inference from the present state of scientific theory." (Arthur Eddington)
"Such properties seem to run through the fabric of the natural world like a thread of happy coincidences. But there are so many odd coincidences essential to life that some explanation seems required to account for them." (Sir Fred Hoyle)
"I find it as difficult to understand a scientist who does not acknowledge the presence of a superior rationality behind the existence of the universe as it is to comprehend a theologian who would deny the advances of science." (Wernher von Braun)
