The difference between the Einstein quote and TC’s speech is important, though — Einstein is saying that no matter how hard we try to understand (and he did a lot of understanding!) there will still be mystery, and mystery is beautiful. Whereas TC was advocating not trying to understand so that the mystery will remain.

I think this may be a better analogy:

Ah, you know the way to make me comment - talk about astrophysics.

That’s a great Einstein quote. You know, that whole mystery thing applies to women, too, if you heard TC’s speech the other night. So, astrophysics is like a woman………..

And jeez, Nikki, don’t torture Bailyn like that. It’s bad enough you scared him with “my boyfriend believes in string theory”-talk.
