Quote of the day, Leo Tolstoy
I don’t really agree with Mr Tolstoy on this (there aren’t that many people to whom quantum mechanics could be explained, for example) so I’m posting this because it isn’t often that I get to disagree publicly with famous authors. I look forward to reading this reply. The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already; without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him. - Leo Tolstoy, 1897
