Дуглас Ноэль Адамс знаменитые цитаты
„Неужели недостаточно, что сад очарователен; неужели нужно шарить по его задворкам в поисках фей?“
Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?

Дуглас Ноэль Адамс Цитаты о Вселенной
имеет ту же самую форму, что и сама лужа.
To illustrate the vain conceit that the universe must be somehow preordained for us, because we are so well suited to live in it, he mimed a wonderfully funny imitation of a puddle of water, fitting itself snugly into a depression in the ground, the depression uncannily being exactly the same shape as the puddle.

Speech http://www.biota.org/people/douglasadams/index.html at Digital Biota 2 http://www.cyberbiology.org/, Cambridge, UK, (1998) <br class="br">Источник: Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency <br class="br">Контексте: There are some oddities in the perspective with which we see the world. The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be, but we have done various things over intellectual history to slowly correct some of our misapprehensions.
