“SPACE IN THE UNIVERSE”
“God is not absolute, and Nothingness is not absolute. If we come from these positions (postulates), we confront the inability of language to be precise. This inability reveals that the problem of understanding different phenomena is not so much in the phenomena themselves but in our failure to understand or present them linguistically in the best and most precise manner.”
“Get close to grass and you’ll see a star.”
“Reaching the ultimate laws of physics requires distancing from the paradigms of science and the paradigm of how a human brain usually thinks or functions. To understand the ultimate laws of physics, the human mind must adjust to the requirements or logic of phenomena that seem paradoxical and absurd to us as humans.”
“Science is a human construct. Scientific laws are as valid as our understanding at any particular moment. Scientific laws are not absolute. Scientific laws wear human colors. Regardless of how close we got to the truth, the scientific laws are still not 100% accurate and complete. If we do not possess absolute truth, then scientific laws cannot be final, or they may be representative of the truth up to the level of our knowledge and understanding, not more.”
“Nothing puzzles me more than the time and space; and yet nothing troubles me less.”
“Nick... I hope one day you find you a woman who loves you like my Melissa loved me. Whatever you do, boy, don't turn your back on her. If she says she needs you for something, don't matter how stupid it sounds or what deadline you got, you go to her and you do it. Screw work or whatever else. In the end, the only things that matter are the people in your life. The ones who make your life worth living and whose smiles light up your world. Don't ever push them aside for fair-weather friends. Everything else is just cheap window dressing that you can replace. But once them people are gone..." He winced. "You can't buy back time, Nick. Ever. It's the only thing in life you can't get more of, and it's the one thing that will mercilessly tear you up when it's gone. It takes pity on no soul and no heart. And all those fools who tell you it gets easier in time are lying dumb-asses.”
“Time is a boundary for all mortals. Learning to make solid choices within the givens helps us come closer to living the lives we want. It's a forever calibration and requires ongoing fine-tuning.”
“Procrasdemon has the power to actually make you waste your entire life doing purposeless things, and the worst part is that you won't even be aware of this.”
“Because we believe that one moment is more or less like the next, we lose touch with the essential urgency of the present, the fact that each passing moment is the one moment for the practice of freedom.”
