I would look up at the moon and see that it was not the smooth orb we had all believed, but a pitted and scarred world with no air.

The search for meaning is an illusion of logic and a requirement of the middleclass for predictable breeding space.

This turns out to be true for our three spatial dimensions: mass, energy, and even time itself. There is no briefer period than 10-43 seconds.

and that time itself is a fourth physical dimension.

At the moment I'm doing this space movie, so I'm obsessed with physics and space travel. I know three months down the line it's gone. Then I'll be able to superficially say stuff about space.

While a thousand memories and moments, words, the first darling, the second time Carol had met her at the store, a thousand memories of Carol's face, her voice, moments of anger and laughter flashed like the tail of a comet across her brain. And now it was pale-blue distance and space, an expanding space in which she took flight suddenly like a long arrow.

A note exists between two notes of music, between two facts exists a fact, between two grains of sand no matter how close together there exists an interval of space, a sense that exists between senses — in the interstices of primordial matter is the line of mystery and fire that is the breathing of the world, and the continual breathing of the world is what we hear and call silence.

I am so lost. But that is exactly how we live; lost in time and space.

desde la niñez no fue más que un corazón solitario que latía con dificultad en el espacio.

Between two musical notes there exists another note, between two facts there exists another fact, between two grains of sand, no matter how close together they are, there exists an interval of space, there exists a sensing between sensing—in the interstices of primordial matter there is the mysterious, fiery line that is the world's breathing, and the world's continual breathing is what we hear and call silence.

In the froth, space doesn't have a definite structure. It has various probabilities for different shapes and curvatures. It might have a 50 percent chance of being in one shape, a 10 percent chance of being in another, and a 40 percent chance of being in a third form. Because any structure is possible inside the singularity, we say the singularity is constructed from probabilistic foam, or quantum foam. Quantum gravity governs the probabilities for the various foam structures.

The secret of a successful marriage is not to be at home too much.

Solitude is independence. It had been my wish and with the years I had attained it. It was cold. Oh, cold enough! But it was also still, wonderfully still and vast like the cold stillness of space in which the stars revolve.

The views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality.

Or, we may use Cartesian co-ordinate systems from the outset:

when placed in two positions successively, realises this idea of the equality of two portions of space ; by a rigid body we mean one which, however it be moved or treated, can always be made to appear the same to us as before, if we take up the appropriate position with respect to it. I shall
