“There were no witnesses to what was about to happen. 'Happen' didn't yet exist. Reality was timeless. Space also didn't exist. The distance between two points was immeasurable. The points themselves could be anywhere, hovering and bouncing. Infinity tangled into itself. There was no here and now. Only Being.”
Marcelo Gleiser, The Dancing Universe: From Creation Myths to the Big Bang
“Que outro motivo justificaria a dedicação de toda uma vida ao estudo dos fenômenos naturais, senão uma profunda veneração pela sua beleza? A ciência vai muito além da sua mera prática. Por trás das fórmulas complicadas, das tabelas de dados experimentais e da linguagem técnica, encontra-se uma pessoa tentando transcender as barreiras imediatas da vida diária, guiada por um insaciável desejo de adquirir um nível mais profundo de conhecimento e de realização própria.”
Marcelo Gleiser, The Dancing Universe: From Creation Myths to the Big Bang
