Criss Jami
“We are often taught to look for the beauty in all things, so in finding it, the layman asks the philosopher while the philosopher asks the photographer.”
Criss Jami, Killosophy

“Making mathematics accessible to the educated layman, while keeping high scientific standards, has always been considered a treacherous navigation between the Scylla of professional contempt and the Charybdis of public misunderstanding.”
Gian-Carlo Rota

Criss Jami
“Like all great things which then become fashions, science, as now the universal stamp of approval, probably receives more abuse than any other field of study. Glaze the word itself over whatever vague ideology one may presume ratified, no matter the degree of pseudo-science or lack of scholarly credibility packaged within, and the many will consume it like gravy on a feast. My thought for the time is that as the promise of true science increases, so shall rise its many more superficial counterparts as provided by the agenda-bound trendies and hyper-ambitious laypersons to boot.”
Criss Jami, Healology

“Some things are made funny to some people by their ignorance.”
Mokokoma Mokhonoana

A.W. Tozer
“The "layman" need never think of his humbler task as being inferior to that of his minister. Let every man abide in the calling wherein he is called and his work will be as sacred as the work of the ministry. It is not what a man does that determines whether his work is sacred or secular, it is why he does it. The motive is everything. Let a man sanctify the Lord God in his heart and he can thereafter do no common act.”
A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God: The Human Thirst for the Divine

Mokokoma Mokhonoana
“Ignorance has its own advantages.”
Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“It is better to be a layman full of good deeds than an expert who is just full of words.”
Augusto Branco
