Mereka yang ingin naik setinggi kondisi manusia memungkinkan, harus meninggalkan kebanggaan intelektual, kemahakuasaan berpikir jernih, kepercayaan pada kekuatan absolut logika. Asli: Those who desire to rise as high as our human condition allows, must renounce intellectual pride, the omnipotence of clear thinking, belief in the absolute power of logic.

— Alexis Carrel
