Writing for the stage is different from writing for a book. You want to write in a way that an actor has material to work with, writing in the first person not the third person, and pulling out the dramatic elements in a bigger way for a stage presentation.
BRIAN GREENEI would say in one sentence my goal is to at least be part of the journey to find the unified theory that Einstein himself was really the first to look for.

When you drive your car, E = mc2 is at work. As the engine burns gasoline to produce energy in the form of motion, it does so by converting some of the gasoline’s mass into energy, in accord with Einstein’s formula.
BRIAN GREENE -
…things are the way they are in our universe because if they weren’t, we wouldn’t be here to notice.

I enjoy reading blogs, but am not interested in having my spurious thoughts out there.
BRIAN GREENE -
The boldness of asking deep questions may require unforeseen flexibility if we are to accept the answers.
BRIAN GREENE -
Art makes us human, music makes us human, and I deeply feel that science makes us human.
BRIAN GREENE -
Free will is the sensation of making a choice. The sensation is real, but the choice seems illusory. Laws of physics determine the future.
BRIAN GREENE -
Our eyes only see the big dimensions, but beyond those there are others that escape detection because they are so small.
BRIAN GREENE -
If someone wants to place the word ‘God’ on those collections of words, it’s OK with me.
BRIAN GREENE -
I’d say many features of string theory don’t mesh with what we observe in everyday life.

Relativity challenges your basic intuitions that you’ve built up from everyday experience. It says your experience of time is not what you think it is, that time is malleable. Your experience of space is not what you think it is; it can stretch and shrink.
BRIAN GREENE -
Every moment is as real as every other. Every ‘now,’ when you say, ‘This is the real moment,’ is as real as every other ‘now’ – and therefore all the moments are just out there. Just as every location in space is out there, I think every moment in time is out there, too.

In quantum mechanics there is A causing B. The equations do not stand outside that usual paradigm of physics. The real issue is that the kinds of things you predict in quantum mechanics are different from the kinds of things you predict using general relativity.
BRIAN GREENE -
Quantum Mechanics is different. Its weirdness is evident without comparison. It is harder to train your mind to have quantum mechanical tuition, because quantum mechanics shatters our own personal, individual conception of reality
BRIAN GREENE -
But can we really understand that or put rigorous mathematics or testable experiments against that? Not yet. So one of the big holy grail of physics is to understand why there is something rather than nothing.
BRIAN GREENE -
Evidence in support of general relativity came quickly. Astronomers had long known that Mercury’s orbital motion around the sun deviated slightly from what Newton’s mathematics predicted. In 1915,
