| gptkbp:famousQuote |
"The universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose."
"What I cannot create, I do not understand." "Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts." "The most important thing is to not stop questioning." "Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it." "I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something." "You have no responsibility to live up to what other people expect of you." "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool." "The beauty of a flower is not in its petals, but in its roots." "If you want to find out anything from the theoretical physics, you have to use your imagination." |
