Every body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, except insofar as it doesn't.

The quest of the absolute leads into the four-dimensional world.

Human life is proverbially uncertain; few things are more certain than the solvency of a life-insurance company.

If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations - then so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation - well, these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the second law of thermodynamics I can give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.

Oh leave the Wise our measures to collate. One thing at least is certain, light has weight. One thing is certain and the rest debate. Light rays, when near the Sun, do not go straight.
