    The Hero Path

    We have not even to risk the adventure alone
    for the heroes of all time have gone before us.
    The labyrinth is thoroughly known ...
    we have only to follow the thread of the hero path.
    And where we had thought to find an abomination
    we shall find a God.

    And where we had thought to slay another
    we shall slay ourselves.
    Where we had thought to travel outwards
    we shall come to the center of our own existence.
    And where we had thought to be alone
    we shall be with all the world.”
    Joseph Campbell

    Charles Seife
    “Zero is powerful because it is infinity’s twin. They are equal and opposite, yin and
    yang. They are equally paradoxical and troubling. The biggest questions in science
    and religion are about nothingness and eternity, the void and the infinite, zero and
    infinity. The clashes over zero were the battles that shook the foundations of philosophy,
    of science, of mathematics, and of religion. Underneath every revolution lay a
    zero – and an infinity.”
    Charles Seife, Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea

  • #17
    Charles Seife
    “As mathematicians were uncovering the connection between zero and infinity, physicists began to encounter zeros in the natural world; zero crossed over from mathematics to physics. In thermodynamics a zero became an uncrossable barrier: the coldest temperature possible. In Einstein's theory of general relativity, a zero became a black hole, a monstrous star that swallows entire suns. In quantum mechanics, a zero is responsible for a bizarre source of energy-infinite and ubiquitous, present even in the deepest vacuum-and a phantom force exerted by nothing at all.”
    Charles Seife, Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea

    Charles Seife
    “Nature speaks in equations.”
    Charles Seife, Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea

  • #19
    Charles Seife
    “Zero dwells at the juxtaposition of quantum mechanics and relativity; zero lives where the two theories meet, and zero causes the two theories to clash. A black hole is a zero in the equations of general relativity; the energy of the vacuum is a zero in the mathematics of quantum theory. The big bang, the most puzzling event in the history of the universe, is a zero in both theories. The universe came from nothing-and both theories break down when they try to explain the origin of the cosmos.”
    Charles Seife, Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea

  • #20
    Charles Seife
    “The infinite zero of a black hole-mass crammed into zero space, curving space infinitely-punches a hole in the smooth rubber sheet. The equations of general relativity cannot deal with the sharpness of zero. In a black hole, space and time are meaningless.”
    Charles Seife, Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea

    Leibniz., Philosophical Writings

  • #26
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
    “There is nothing in the understanding which has not come from the senses, except the understanding itself, or the one who understands.”
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Philosophical Essays

    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
    “If you could blow the brain up to the size of a mill and walk about inside, you would not find consciousness.”
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz

  • #28
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
    “This interconnection or accommodation of all created things to each other, and each to all the others, brings it about that each simple substance has relations that express all the others, and consequently, that each simple substance is a perpetual, living mirror of the universe.”
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, G. W. Leibniz's Monadology: An Edition for Students

  • #29
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
    “He who does not act does not exist.”
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz

    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
    “...it is the knowledge of necessary and eternal truths that distinguishes us from the mere animals and gives us Reason and the sciences, raising us to the knowledge of ourselves and of God...”
    Gottfried Leibniz
