«After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again.

I see myself as a tall, skinny Fellini, vigorously lifting weights. That?s what I would do differently. I would lift weights.»
«Access to the Vedas is the greatest privilege this century may claim over all previous centuries.»
