"I suppose it could never have worked, anyway, but I do love you, Jimmy. I shall never love anyone as I have loved you. But I can't go on. I can't take part - in all this suffering. I can't."

Hemfikir olmadıklarımızın bile böyle düşüneceği kadar içten olmalıyız
Yaptığım şeyi beğenmiyorlar. Ama yapma sebebimi anlıyorlar. Peder David ve birkaçı daha nasıl çalıştığımı gördü. Onaylamıyor, ama yaptığım şey için de beni kınamıyorlar. Yanlış yönlendirilmiş ama iyi niyetli biri olduğumu düşünüyorlar.

They don’t like what I do. But they accept my explanation for why I do it, and Brother David and a few others have seen how I do it. They don’t approve, but they don’t condemn me for it. They think I’m misguided but well - intentioned.”
“Progress takes time. Don’t feel down. You might not be where you want to be, but you’re also not where you were yesterday. Each day is a baby step. You just keep looking forward and taking them, and I promise one day you’re going to look back and be surprised how far those tiny little steps have taken you."
He, who knows nothing, loves nothing. He, who can do nothing, understands nothing.
He who understands nothing is worthless. But he who understands also loves, notices,
sees.... The more knowledge is inherent in a thing, the greater the love ...
Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows
nothing about grapes.

Seeing small pieces of a larger jigsaw puzzle in isolation, no matter how hi-def the picture, is insufficient to grapple with humanity's great- est challenges. We have long known the laws of thermodynamics, but struggle to predict the spread of a forest fire. We know how cells work, but can't predict the poetry that will be written by a human made up of them. The frog's-eye view of individual parts is not enough. A healthy ecosystem needs biodiversity.
Even now, even in endeavors that engender specialization unprece- dented in history, there are beacons of breadth. Individuals who live by historian Arnold Toynbee's words that "no tool is omnicompetent. There is no such thing as a master-key that will unlock all doors." Rather than wielding a single tool, they have managed to collect and protect an entire toolshed, and they show the power of range in a hyper- specialized world.
