The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.
-Einstein
Science
It is not the greatest of modern scientists who feel most sure that the object, stripped of its qualitative properties and reduced to mere quantity, is wholly real. Little scientists, and little unscientific followers of science, may think so. The great minds know very well that the object, so treated, is an artificial abstraction, that something of its reality has been lost.
Read me
I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.
Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought:
So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
- T.S. Eliot
Me
I am quiet. I spend my free time playing tennis, playing the paino and just thinking/reading. I am frustrated by stupidity and loathe ignorance. I enjoy genuine people and can not stand superficiality. I tend to forget details, like my birthday, socks, zippers, meals, where my car is, what year it is, tests, etc. I rarely sleep. I am completely addicted to caffeine. I do not care for anything conventional, and will go to considerable lengths to avoid insipid/superfluous rules and regulations.
