  • "Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen."
  • "...one of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one's own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought."
  • "Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts." (Sign hanging in Einstein's office at Princeton)

    A very famous Modernist poem. In stark contrast to e e cummings' poem, this one deviates from the norm by being so prosaic in its language.

      This presentation really helped my wrap my mind around both special relativity and general relativity. The movies in the presentation do a great job explaining these difficult concepts.

    So this guy created a website where he features all his work (he's been doing this since 1995). It's cool to see how both he and the software improves over time. Really cool artwork!
