Accepted Quote by Brian Greene

Einstein had two new predictions from general relativity. One was that light would bend. That was tested in 1919, and basically, he was proven…

It is almost impossible to have a baseless snobbish opinion of the General Theory of Relativity.

By the time 1967 had rolled around, general relativity had been relegated to mathematics departments... in most people's minds, it bore no relation to…

— Rainer Weiss

Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity are both accepted as scientific fact even though they're mutually exclusive. Albert Einstein spent the second half of his…

“The dark-matter hypothesis is preferred mostly because the only other possibility-that we are wrong about Newton's laws, and by extension general relativity-is too scary…
