Quotes About Dimensions

Had he but known that before the day was over he would discover the hidden dimensions of the universe, Kit might have been better prepared. At least, he would have brought an umbrella.

~ Stephen R. Lawhead
To a state of universal consciousness known as Da'at; a place of infinite light, energy, and perfection, where all ten dimensions are united as one. Physical beings who are giving, like your friend, are able to draw from its energy. Those who receive for themselves alone cannot access it. One who has awakened Da'at is able to perform the miraculous. Are you ready to perform the miraculous, Zachary?" "What miracle, Alien Joe? What are you asking me to do?
~ Steve Alten
Step 2 Mark off a square for the wall, I made mine 67 by 67 blocks.
~ Steve Jenkins
Hoping to escape those associations and underscore the spiritual dimensions of these drugs, some researchers have proposed they instead be called "entheogens"—from the Greek for "the divine within.
~ Michael Pollan
These parallel universes are not ghost worlds with an ephemeral existence; within each universe, we have the appearance of solid objects and concrete events as real and as objective as any.
~ Michio Kaku
For the ten-dimensional universe, however, there are apparemtly millions of ways in which to curl up. To calculate which state the ten-dimensional universe prefers, we need to solve the field theory of strings using the theory of phase transitions, the most difficult problem in quantum theory.
~ Michio Kaku
in string theory, the dimensionality of space-time is fixed at ten dimensions.
~ Michio Kaku
So string theory and M-theory are really the same theory, except that string theory is a reduction of eleven-dimensional M-theory to ten dimensions.)
~ Michio Kaku
If our scientists invent concepts like forces, it is only because they cannot visualize the invisible vibrations that fill the empty space around us. Some scientists sneer at the mention of higher dimensions because they cannot be conveniently measured in the laboratory.
~ Michio Kaku
Riemann found that in four spatial dimensions, one needs a collection of ten numbers at each point to describe its properties.
~ Michio Kaku
Normally communication between these universes is impossible. The atoms of our body are like flies trapped on flypaper. We can move freely about in three dimensions along our membrane universe, but we cannot leap off the universe into hyperspace, because we are glued onto our universe. But gravity, being the warping of space-time, can freely float into the space between universes.
~ Michio Kaku
If we now take a Kaluza-Klein theory defined in 4+N dimensions and then curl up N dimensions, we will find that the equations split into two pieces. The first piece is Einstein's usual equations, which we retrieve as expected. But the second piece will not be the theory of Maxwell. We find that the remainder is precisely the Yang-Mills theory, which forms the basis of all subatomic physics! This is the key to turning the symmetries of wood into the symmetries of marble.
~ Michio Kaku
Finalmente, Einstein creó dos grandes teorías. La primera fue la relatividad especial, que describía las propiedades de los rayos de luz en el espacio-tiempo e introducía una simetría basada en rotaciones en cuatro dimensiones. La segunda fue la relatividad general, en la que la gravedad se revela como la curvatura del espacio-tiempo.
~ Michio Kaku
If rejection and priviledge are one and the same, if there is no difference between the sublime and the paltry, if Son of God can undergo judgement of shit, then human existence loses its dimensions and becomes unbearable light.
~ Milan Kundera
He looks at Mama out of the corner of his eye, again surprised by how little she is. As if all of her life has been a slow process of shrinkage. But just what is that shrinkage? Is it the real shrinkage of a person abandoning his adult dimensions and starting on the long journey through old age and death toward distances where there is only a nothingness without dimension?
~ Milan Kundera
We live in two different dimensions, you and I.
~ Milan Kundera
En el caso de un hombre hermoso, el juego de las casualidades eligió el promedio de todas las dimensiones
~ Milan Kundera
No dimensions are closed to the ones in service of the Universal Law.
~ AainaA-Ridtz
The new dimensions of the message are examples of the Spirit of truth doing what Jesus promised he would do: continuing
~ Brian D. McLaren
the startling idea that the comings and goings we observe in the three dimensions of day-to-day life might themselves be holographic projections of physical processes taking place on a distant, two-dimensional surface.
~ Brian Greene
Within the modified equations, Kaluza found the ones Einstein had already used successfully to describe gravity in the familiar three dimensions of space and one of time. But because his new formulation included an additional dimension of space, Kaluza found an additional equation. Lo and behold, when Kaluza derived this equation he recognized it as the very one Maxwell had discovered half a century earlier to describe the electromagnetic field.
~ Brian Greene
A calculation—not an assumption, not a hypothesis, not an inspired guess—determines the number of space dimensions according to string theory, and the surprising thing is that the calculated number is not three, but nine. String theory leads us, inevitably, to a universe with six extra space dimensions
~ Brian Greene
Patience and timing . . . everything comes when it must come. A life cannot be rushed, cannot be worked on a schedule as so many people want it to be. We must accept what comes to us at a given time, and not ask for more. But life is endless, so we never die; we were never really born. We just pass through different phases. There is no end. Humans have many dimensions. But time is not as we see time, but rather in lessons that are learned.
~ Brian L. Weiss
