"While it is true that scientific results are entirely independent 
from religious or moral considerations, those individuals to whom we 
owe the great creative achievements of science were all of them 
imbued with the truly religious conviction that this universe of ours 
is something perfect and susceptible to the rational striving for 
knowledge. If this conviction had not been a strongly emotional one 
and if those searching for knowledge had not been inspired by 
Spinoza's Amor Dei Intellectualis, they wouid hardly have been 
capable of that untiring devotion which alone enables man to attain 
his greatest achievements."

- Albert Einstein
