Jacques-Yves Cousteau

"I have only two things I want to say to you. First of all, all these years while I travelled around the world, I studied the cultures of different people and the impact water has on people and also on animals. During all these years, a revelation suddenly came to me. All animals and all plants react on the basis of motivation that comes from motion. So during my studies and observations the beating of the heart became an obsession to me. The heartbeat of humans, dolphins and whales, even cold blooded animals. Where does this heartbeat come from? It stops when bios does not exist anymore. The pulsation from the medusa was probably the beginning of its movement. This pulsation penetrates, in the same manner, all kinds of life. I say to myself "How can we attach so much to this pulsation if it is only for motion?" This pulsation is a propulsion that will move us further from where we are today."

Alfred Nobel (1833-1896)

"My dynamite will sooner lead to peace than a thousand worldconventions. As soon as men will find that in one instant, whole armiescan be utterly destroyed, they surely will abide by golden peace."
