Confused Fall
I'm currently going through "Quantum Physics for Poets" and I feel like Paul Dirac captured my current mindset well when he said: "The aim of science is to make difficult things understandable in a simpler way; the aim of poetry is to state simple things in an incomprehensible way. The two are incompatible."

Oftentimes when reading this book I have felt like a zombie staring at words on a paper, with no comprehension for the terms, their meaning, and the math involved. I feel like I have the IQ of a snail. Confusedhock:

So please forgive me? Angel Cloud
