The biblical understanding of the human person is holistic. It makes no distinction between body and soul. The human person is not a soul living in a body, but an animated body, so perfectly integrated that the person in his totality can express himself/herself and be apprehended in any part. “It is the body rooted in the cosmos and related to other human beings, which gives the person his or her identity.”

 
Kurien Kunnumpuram

Some other person who weeds out the bad from the good ideas.

 
Edward Teller

We shall have rapid or slow advance on any scientific frontier depending on the number of highly qualified and trained scientists exploring it.

 
Vannevar Bush
