The Important Things Are Always Simple.

As Soon As Science Has Emerged From Its Initial Stages, Theoretical Advances Are No Longer Achieved Merely By A Process Of Arrangement. Guided By Empirical Data, The Investigator Rather Develops A System Of Thought Which, In General, Is Built Up Logically From A Small Number Of Fundamental Assumptions, The So-called Axioms. We Call Such A System Of Thought A Theory. The Theory Finds The Justification For Its Existence In The Fact That It Correlates A Large Number Of Single Observations, And It Is Just Here That The 'truth' Of The Theory Lies.

It Would Of Course Be A Great Step Forward If We Succeeded In Combining The Gravitational Field And The Electromagnetic Field Into A Single Structure. Only So Could The Era In Theoretical Physics Inaugurated By Faraday And James Clerk Maxwell Be Brought To A Satisfactory Close.

It Is Difficult To Say What Truth Is, But Sometimes It Is So Easy To Recognize A Falsehood.
