“I have tried to read philosophers of all ages and have found many illuminating ideas but no steady progress toward deeper knowledge and understanding. Science, however, gives me the feeling of steady progress: I am convinced that theoretical physics is actual philosophy. It has revolutionized fundamental concepts, e.g., about space and time (relativity), about causality (quantum theory), and about substance and matter (atomistics), and it has taught us new methods of thinking (complementarity) which are applicable far beyond physics.”

“My viewpoint is that by a certain speed development happens and generates new information. This information can by time change. It creates a two-dimensional space, one could understand as a pure mathematical space, where speed and time, but not distance is fundamental.”
