As for the forces, electromagnetism and gravity we experience in everyday life. But the weak and strong forces are beyond our ordinary experience. So in physics, lots of the basic building blocks take 20th- or perhaps 21st-century equipment to explore. ↗

Like everything metaphysical the harmony between thought and reality is to be found in the grammar of the language. ↗

If you were to hold me down and tickle me to pick my favorite 'plus-comic,' it would have to be Kevin James, a broad physical pratfaller capable of deadpan underplay, a technique honed from years of reaction-shot close-ups on TV, where every teeny fraction of a squint registers. ↗

It used to be that you knew your neighbors and maybe your coworkers - the people in your physical vicinity. ↗

Physiological psychology, on the other hand, is competent to investigate the relations that hold between the processes of the physical and those of the mental life. ↗

When someone lives as a minority, they experience the world differently than those of us who live in the majority. We may occupy the same physical space, but we don't occupy the same psychic space. ↗

My vanity is not remotely physical, it is cerebral. I suppose feeling self-conscious might be a form of vanity, though. ↗

The new formula in physics describes humans as paradoxical beings who have two complementary aspects: They can show properties of Newtonian objects and also infinite fields of consciousness. ↗
