I am very fond of the quotation of Pascal: 'The heart has reasons that reason does not know at all'. That all of us are more than just a collection of chemicals and that the sum of Man's scientific knowledge is rather less than the sum of Man. There are depths to individuals that no man made construct can measure and I think that we come closer to the truth when we recognise truth in its ultimate sense defies explanation or even a pinpoint definiton. Pascal was a scientist, a mathematician and the inventor of Calculus but saw so clearly his limitations in defining the universe. If a man of his calibre was humble then how much more should we be.
