More quotes by F. David Peat

Science proceeds by abstracting what is essential from the accidental details of matter and process.

The mescal bead... is no mere symbol. For those who wear it, it really does enfold the universe and bring them into contact with all of creation.

The Blackfoot Physics (2006)
