"The medieval theologian who gazed at the night sky through the eyes of Aristotle and saw angels moving the spheres in harmony has become the modern cosmologist who gazes at the same sky through the eyes of Einstein and sees the hand of God not in angels but in the constants of nature. When confronted with the order and beauty of the universe and the strange coincidences of nature, itÂ¹s very tempting to take the leap of faith from science into religion. I am sure many physicists want to. I only wish they would admit it."

“And you? Did you find the doorknob?â€ Hadrian picked up a jug and downed several swallows, drinking so quickly some of the water dripped down his chin.
