 Richard Feynman's love letter to his dead wife:

 

νυνὶ δὲ μένει πίστις ἐλπίς ἀγάπη ... μείζων δὲ τούτων ἡ ἀγάπη

-- Thomas Browne

One of the greatest scientists ever was a Protestant

"Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts" – Richard Feynman, atheist, Jew, theoretical physicist, Nobel Prize winner in 1965
