photographs before. As I looked at all that, I
realized that the room had begun to fill with
people, and one by one they too peeked into the
telescope. I was told that these were astronomers
attached to the observatory, but they had never
before had the opportunity of looking directly at
the objects of their investigations. I can only hope
that this encounter made them realize the
importance of such direct contacts.
Victor Weisskopf, The joy of insight
TRY: Thinking that your life is at least as interesting
and miraculous as the moon or the stars. What is it
that stands between you and direct contact with your
life? What can you do to change that?
