Quote by Steven Wright
I heard that in relativity theory, space and time are the same thing. Einstein discovered this when he kept showing up three miles late for his meetings.
Summary
This quote is a humorous way of referencing the concept of spacetime in Einstein's theory of relativity. It suggests that Einstein's tardiness was due to his realization that time and space are interconnected. In relativity theory, spacetime is a unified concept in which physical events are described in terms of their position in both space and time. This quote comically suggests that Einstein's newfound understanding of the oneness of space and time led to his lateness.
