I told the physics world energy comes in packets and now everybody acts like they discovered coffee. by Max Planck

Both of you are acting brave for men who would absolutely argue with a lamp if it had equations.

Final verdict: Max gave us quanta, Niels gave us complications, and I gave everyone a mustache and a headache.

I only argue with lamps when the lamp is being wrong in public.

Max, you did great work, but your line is still the most aggressively useful sentence in modern physics.

Niels, you built an entire personality around saying 'it depends' with eye contact.

Albert, please, you say that like you did not spend half your career arguing with a blackboard.

That is not a scientific method, that is just being Albert.
