We are Always in the Age of Wonder

What the world needs now.

Yes, as Freeman Dyson points out, we always live in an "age of wonder," and we need more human beings to open their eyes and heads to acknowledge and celebrate the wonder.

We need scientists who think and see and write like poets. And we need poets who think and see and write like scientists.

And it does happen. I love when I read physicists and cosmologists who sound like visionary poets. 

Describe the world clearly, vividly - it is a place of signs and wonders. Open your eyes and heads!
