“Contrast is the intangible ingredient, the catalyst that makes life exciting. The human mind rejects monotony even to the point of destroying itself in madness, when monotony is forced upon it for too long. ...

“Macroscopic objects, as we see them all around us, are governed by a variety of forces, derived from a variety of approximations to a variety of physical theories. In contrast, the only elements in the construction of black holes are our basic concepts of space and time. They are, thus, almost by definition, the most perfect macroscopic objects there are in the universe.” UniverseForceBlackSpacePerfectObjectsTheoryElementsConceptsDefinitionsHolesVarietyConstructionContrastTime And SpaceBlack HoleApproximation Author:Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar
