General Relativity Quotes

19 quotes by 13 authors

Einstein, my upset stomach hates your theory [of General Relativity]â€”it almost hates you yourself! How am I to' provide for my students? What am I… — Paul Ehrenfest
Relativity propped it up, at least gave it the illusion of being thereâ€¦the way all reality becomes illusory and observer-oriented when you study general relativity.… — Joe Haldeman
Evidence in support of general relativity came quickly. Astronomers had long known that Mercuryâ€™s orbital motion around the sun deviated slightly from what Newtonâ€™s mathematics… — Brian Greene
Einstein was searching for String Theory. It not only reconciles General Relativity to Quantum Mechanics, but it reconciles Science and the Bible as well. — Roy H. Williams
In Einstein's general relativity the structure of space can change but not its topology. Topology is the property of something that doesn't change when you… — Edward Witten
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 life… — Roy H. Williams
In the context of general relativity, space almost is a substance. It can bend and twist and stretch, and probably the best way to think… — Alan Guth
General relativity is the cornerstone of cosmology and astrophysics. It has also provided the conceptual basis for string theory and other attempts to unify all… — Paul Davies
Asked in 1919 whether it was true that only three people in the world understood the theory of general relativity, [Eddington] allegedly replied: "Who's the… — Arthur Eddington
I always found it satisfying that gravity was described by Einstein's geometric theory of general relativity. — Antony Garrett Lisi
No matter how hard you try to teach your cat general relativity, you're going to fail. — Brian Greene
String theory is the most developed theory with the capacity to unite general relativity and quantum mechanics in a consistent manner. I do believe the… — Brian Greene
When general relativity was first put forward in 1915, the math was very unfamiliar to most physicists. Now we teach general relativity to advanced high… — Brian Greene
Most of what Einstein said and did has no direct impact on what anybody reads in the Bible. Special relativity, his work in quantum mechanics,… — Neil deGrasse Tyson
General relativity predicts that time ends inside black holes because the gravitational collapse squeezes matter to infinite density. — Lee Smolin
The real reason why general relativity is widely accepted is because it made predictions that were borne out by experimental observations. — Brian Greene
We have to have a combination of general relativity that describes the warping of space and time, and quantum physics, which describes the uncertainties in… — Kip Thorne
I became interested in this question of whether you can build wormholes for interstellar travel. I realized that if you had a wormhole, the theory… — Kip Thorne
So what I'm saying is why don't we think about changing Schrodinger's equation at some level when masses become too big at the level that… — Roger Penrose
