“Lin Lin is too smart. To work in fundamental theory, one must be stupid.”
Feynman's take on this: "I declared myself to be among those who feel uncomfortable when asked to articulate what we really think about the quantum theory,

You are sharing in the totality of that pain. You are called upon to meet it in joy instead of self-pity. -Sufi poetry”
