“It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated.

They are creatures who—in their grudge against the traditional "opium of the people"—cannot bear the music of the spheres. The Wonder of nature does not become smaller because one cannot measure it by the standards of human morals and human aims.”
