“Стаття ’т Гофта, яка на кілька місяців випередила мою, чомусь залишилася майже непоміченою. Частково це пов’язано з її назвою «Розмірна редукція у квантовій гравітації».

Then, if you’re like me, when you just sit quietly, just be, and let yourself feel what you feel, the guilt creeps in. Because you’re alive and the world is big, and you should be feeling some freakin’ Christmas spirit.”
