Quote by Dejan Stojanovic

“We are still too far from the true definition of space and a true definition of fact. To prove that there is a curvature of space, we must undeniably prove and show that we know and understand what space is and that we know and understand what a fact is philosophically, linguistically, and physically. Consequently, we may say we have considered and know all this, but the “fact” remains the “fact.” It is not whether we say we understand all this and have considered all that but if we have genuinely and undeniably proved and understood what we declare.”

“It took a moment to recognize Timothy... her first love. There had been a time when the mere sight of his handsome face had made her catch her breath. It had taken her years to recover from losing Timothy. Now the pain of his loss was muted and somehow apart from her, as if a broken engagement had happened to some other young, naive girl. She looked at him, and all she could think was, Thank Goodness. Thank goodness she's escaped marrying him.”

“We may argue that since nothing is just nothing, it cannot be space, and since it is not space, space is, in other words, what we see or think space is. However, what we see or think about space does not mean we have proved that what we see as space is real space. What is curved is only the Being, presented to us as something we call matter and energy, not space. Although Being envelopes space or is enveloped by space, it does not mean that space curves, only the Being. Since space is undetectable, passive, and nonexistent except concerning the Being, it does not contain any property or feature and, therefore, cannot be curved. There must be something to be curved.”
