Lewis Thomas Quotes

«When committees gather, each member is necessarily an actor, uncontrollably acting out the part of himself, reading the lines that identify him, asserting his identity.

«We leave traces of ourselves wherever we go, on whatever we touch»
«Sometimes you get a glimpse of a semicolon coming, a few lines farther on, and it is like climbing a steep path through woods and seeing a wooden bench just at a bend in the road ahead, a place where you can expect to sit for a moment, catching your breath.»
«We are built to make mistakes, coded for error.»
