Topic: A Self Evident Truth. Our discussion continues.

Albert Einstein:  Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared.

Phil:  Where did all that energy go?  Oh dear, what's the matter now?  Dimensional phase change?"

Stephen Hawking:  "However, one cannot really argue with a mathematical theorem."  "My goal is simple.  It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all."

Phil:  "There are limits of course.  Abstraction is always incomplete. There is only one complete model of Reality.  Full scale."

Stephen Wright: "You can't have everything, where would you put it?"

Isaac Newton:   “If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.”

Phil:  "Did you see the Darryl Hannah version of 'Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman?'"

Barbara Seaman:  Condoms should be marketed in 3 sizes, jumbo, colossal, and super colossal, so that men do not have to go in and ask for the small.

Werner Heisenberg:  "It is not surprising that our language should be incapable of describing the processes occurring within the atoms, for, as has been remarked, it was invented to describe the experiences of daily life, and these consist only of processes involving exceedingly large numbers of atoms. Furthermore, it is very difficult to modify our language so that it will be able to describe these atomic processes, for words can only describe things of which we can form mental pictures, and this ability, too, is a result of daily experience. Fortunately, mathematics is not subject to this limitation, and it has been possible to invent a mathematical scheme - the quantum theory - which seems entirely adequate for the treatment of atomic processes; for visualization, however, we must content ourselves with two incomplete analogies - the wave picture and the corpuscular picture."

Phil:  "What's the matter?  Dimensional differential juxtaposition? Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle?"

Ben Franklin:  "Time is money."

Phil:  "Can the human mind grasp a what's-sa-ma-giggy-do-hickie?"

Thomas Carlyle:  "Speech is silvern, Silence is golden."

Phil:  "Did you take two aspirins?"

Anonymous:  "Love makes the world go 'round."

Phil:  "If it's real, it has an electron volt equivalent."

Donald Trump:  “It's tangible, it's solid, it's beautiful. It's artistic, from my standpoint, and I just love real estate.”

Rosalind:  "Thou speak wiser than thou art ware of."

Phil:  "For a discerning standard model, that's a massive proposition."
