About this Quote

This quote by Richard Dawkins speaks with the amazing intricacy of life and the universe. It is a tip of the large magnitude of deep space and the fact that life evolved from absolutely nothing. The idea that life progressed from nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe itself developed from absolutely nothing, is a principle that is difficult to understand. It is a suggestion of the power of nature and the incredible complexity of the universe. Dawkins acknowledges that it is difficult to do justice to this idea with words, as it is so huge and incomprehensible. This quote acts as a reminder of the appeal and intricacy of deep space and the power of nature.
