"In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite." -- Paul Dirac (1902-1984) .

The Quotes for today is;
...Man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than
dolphins because he had achieved so much... the wheel, New York,
wars, and so on, whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck
about in the water having a good time. But conversely the
dolphins believed themselves to be more intelligent than man for
precisely the same reasons.
-- Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, by Douglas Adams.
It is of interest to note that while some dolphins are reported to have learned English
-- up to fifty words used in correct context
-- no human being has been reported to have learned dolphinese.
Carl Sagan.
