Unsourced

• I go into the Upanishads to ask questions.

• It is better to not understand something true, than to understand something false.

1. "The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth."

"It is the hallmark of any deep truth that its negation is also a deep truth."

While these statements seem profound themselves, I cannot come up with an example. Any ideas?

As quoted by Edward Teller (10 October 1972), and A Dictionary of Scientific Quotations (1991) by Alan L. Mackay, p. 35 imho does not conform to WQ:SOURCE. If eager for variants, why not take http://books.google.de/books?id=n82xMo-BI8QC&pg=PA318 and http://books.google.de/books?id=n82xMo-BI8QC&pg=PA71 from Teller's memoirs? --Vsop.de 19:28, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

We have long included common variant forms, paraphrases, or alternate translations of sourced quotes along with those forms that are sourced to the earliest, and therefore most likely accurate forms. This can be helpful in many ways, one of them being the likelihood that people will find this site in internet searches using alternate forms, and therefore most likely to find those forms most likely to be most accurate. Thus, I certainly have no objections to variants you might find from being added. ~ ♞☮♌Kalki·†·⚓⊙☳☶⚡ 19:55, 2 February 2012 (UTC) + tweaks
