“I love radical theorists. But at the same time, I don't agree with them a lot, but I love their theories. I love how they intellectualize rage, and this inner battle that such a tiny percent of people really care about. I find that the most interesting.” PeopleCareInterestingTheoryBattlePercentAgreeRageTinyRadicalMost InterestingTheorists Author:John Waters
“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
“I happen to disagree with the well-entrenched theory that the art of conversation is merely the art of being a good listener. Such advice invites people to be cynical with one another and full of fake; when a conversation becomes a monologue, poked along with tiny cattle-prod questions, it isn't a conversation any more.” PeopleWellsArtHappensWomenAdviceTheoryConversationTinyFakeDisagreeInvitesCynicalListenersCattleMonologuesGood ListenerArt Of Conversation Author:Barbara Walters
“When we blew the first atomic bomb at White Sands near the end of the war, nobody knew what was going to happen. There was a theory that the chain reaction would continue forever. And we would have created a little tiny sun out there in the desert that would burn until the end of the universe. It wasn't a widely held theory but it was a theory that nobody had a way of disproving. There were people who thought it wouldn't go off at all, that it would simply sit out there and melt and produce a great big dirty cloud of radioactivity. Nobody knew.” PeopleWayFirstsLittlesWarEndsBigsHappensUniverseWhiteSunForeverProduceTheoryCloudsTinyReactionsChainsDesertDirtyBombsSandAtomic BombChain ReactionsWhite Sand Author:Stephen King
“The Mars Rover sent back stunning photos [last week] indicating the past presence of water. The pictures show tiny splotches of blue on the Red Planet.
