Summary

This quote suggests that love and power are inversely related. In a relationship or society where love governs, there is no desire for power or control. Conversely, in situations where power is the primary force, love and compassion are overshadowed. The quote implies that love and power cannot coexist harmoniously; they represent opposing forces, almost like two sides of the same coin. This idea suggests that the excessive pursuit of power can hinder the presence of genuine love and connection.

Don't they know science doesn't work like that? You can't just order scientific breakthroughs. They happen when you are looking at something you've been working on for years and suddenly see a connection you never noticed before, or when you're looking for something else altogether.
