Intelligence
"The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man.

In this sense, and in this sense alone, I rank myself amoung profoundly religious men."
God

Science
"The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax."
Money
"The laws of gravity cannot be held responsible for people falling in love."
Love
