Summary

This quote, often attributed to Albert Einstein, suggests that mathematics, while a powerful tool to understand and describe the physical world, does not provide absolute certainty about the nature of reality. It implies that mathematical laws are only valid as long as they accurately describe observable phenomena, but they may not capture the entirety of what exists. It challenges the notion that mathematics alone can completely explain the complexity and mysteries of the universe and its underlying reality.

LAW 4 Always Say Less Than Necessary When you are trying to

LAW 4 Always Say Less Than Necessary When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. Even if you are saying something banal, it will seem original if you make it vague, open-ended, and sphinxlike. Powerful people impress and intimidate by saying less. The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish.
