“There is no science without fancy and no art without fact”

Vladmir Nabakov

“One of the most powerful tools involved with unraveling the secrets in the theoretical sciences is simplifying the system at hand and borrowing an analogy from what might, at first glance, be a completely unrelated discipline. It is in the limits of these analogies… where an avenue for discovery lies. It’s like an interdisciplinary rock hopping from the bank of ignorance to the bank of knowledge while the wide river of life rushes past.”

Stephen Alexander, The Jazz of Physics

“Subverting expectations is a powerful artistic force.”

David Poeppel, New York University
