當下即是

If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those live in present.

— Wittgenstein

.

This quotation induces me to have the following thought:

If you concentrate on a meaningful work now and here, you preserve your infinity. (No explanation here.)

3.5.7 palm

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild
Hold infinity in a palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour

— William Blake

無人能夠奪去屬於我的一秒鐘.

我永遠存活在那一秒鐘 –

過去, 現在, 未來, 盡收其中.

一沙一世界
一花一天堂
掌中握無限
刹那即永恆

Nobel Prize x 2, part 1

The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956

Bardeen brought only one of his three children to the Nobel Prize ceremony. His two sons were studying at Harvard University, and Bardeen didn’t wanted to disrupt their studies. King Gustav scolded Bardeen because of this, and Bardeen assured the King that the next time he would bring all his children to the ceremony.

The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1972

In 1972, John Bardeen shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with Leon Neil Cooper of Brown University and John Robert Schrieffer of the University of Pennsylvania for their jointly developed theory of superconductivity, usually called the BCS-theory.

Bardeen did bring all his children to the Nobel Prize ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden.

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
