“Every day I get to 'Think' and work on everything from digitizing electric grids so they can accommodate renewable energy and enable mass adoption of electric cars, helping major cities reduce congestion and pollution, to developing new micro-finance programs that help tiny businesses get started in markets such as Brazil, India, Africa.” ThinkingHelpingEnergyCitiesCarMajorsMassProgramIndiaTinyFinanceDevelopingPollutionElectricAdoptionBrazilAccommodateRenewable EnergyGridsCongestionElectric Car Author:Ginni Rometty
“Our planet consists largely of lumps of fall-out from a star-sized hydrogen bomb. Within our bodies, no less than three million atoms rendered unstable in that event still erupt every minute, releasing a tiny fraction of the energy stored from that fierce fire of long ago.” LongStillsBodyFallThreeEnergyStarsMillionsFireMinutesEventsPlanetsTinyBombsAtomsFierceLong AgoOur PlanetFractionsUnstableLumpsHydrogenHydrogen Bomb Author:James Lovelock
“The central idea of string theory is quite straightforward. If you examine any piece of matter ever more finely, at first you'll find molecules, atoms, sub-atomic particles. Probe the smaller particles, you'll find something else, a tiny vibrating filament of energy, a little tiny vibrating string.” IfsFirstsLittlesIdeasMatterEnergyPiecesTheoryTinyStringsAtomsParticlesStraightforwardMoleculesString Theory Author:Brian Greene
“Evil grows and bears fruit, which is understandable, because it has logic and probability on its side and also, of course, strength.

Such seeming nothingness not only lasts but contains within itself enormous energy which is revealed gradually.” LastsCoursesEvilEnergyGrowsSidesBearsConsequenceLogicFruitTinyEnormousResistanceMysteriousReachingGrantsNothingnessProbabilitySeemingKernel Author:Czeslaw Milosz
