Atheism Quote by Isidor Isaac Rabi

“Physics filled me with awe, put me in touch with a sense of original causes. Physics brought me closer to God. That feeling stayed with me throughout my years in science. Whenever one of my students came to me with a scientific project, I asked only one question, 'Will it bring you nearer to God?'” quote by Isidor Isaac Rabi — Download Open image
