Being A Physicist, Not A Philosopher, I

I Had Two Passions When I Was A Child. First Was To Learn About Einstein's Theory And Help To Complete His Dream Of A Unified Theory Of Everything. That's My Day Job. I Work In Something Called String Theory. I'm One Of The Founders Of The Subject. We Hope To Complete Einstein's Dream Of A Theory Of Everything.

I'm A Physicist, And We Have Something Called Moore's Law, Which Says Computer Power Doubles Every 18 Months. So Every Christmas, We More Or Less Assume That Our Toys And Appliances Are More Or Less Twice As Powerful As The Previous Christmas.

Our Grandkids Will Lead The Lives Of The Gods Of Mythology. Zeus Could Think And Move Objects Around. We'll Have That Power. Venus Had A Perfect, Timeless Body. We'll Have That, Too. Pegasus Was A Flying Horse. We'll Be Able To Modify Life In The Future.

What Is The Universe? The Universe Is A Symphony Of Vibrating Strings...we Are Nothing But Melodies. We Are Nothing But Cosmic Music Played Out On Vibrating Strings And Membranes.

I Think Newton Would Be The Greatest Scientist Who Ever Lived.
