”I’m actually as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things [we] have done. Innovation is saying ‘no’ to a 1,000 things.”
-Steve Jobs

May I ask you a very serious question? What if God were to say you were mistaken? If he said “Stop. Newton is right”?
ALBERT EINSTEIN
Then I would thank God for his point of view, and we would agree to differ, and I would be left feeling very sorry for God.
(Einstein and Eddington movie)
====================================================
Light is a particle and a wave. This is hard to understand how a thing can be two things at once; but a woman is also both a particle and a wave. She’s a wave when you see her reach down to pull a shell from the sea, and you feel her beauty pass through you like electrical current. She’s a particle when her hair brushes your face, and her hands push into yours. And a child is also a particle and a wave. He is a wave the sound of his pain shoots through and twists you away from yourself. And he is a particle when a doctor hands you a baby; a small mirror. Women, children and light can be two things at once; a particle, a wave. They ricochet off the hard surfaces and illuminate the corners. Without them it would be far darker.
-Timofey Berezin-
Timofey: You read too much.
Marina: I thought that’s why you liked me.
Timofey: I never said I liked you. I said I loved you.
Marina: When did you say that?
Timofey: Before I ever knew your name. First day I saw you at the institute. I tried to say it with my eyes. On the day I married you in Tuvula and every day since. Just sometimes I said it to myself.
The Half Life of Timofey Berezin (movie)
