“When Newton published [his theory of gravitation], quite a lot of other scientists were disappointed.

They wanted to know what gravity was, and Newton apparently didn't tell them what it was; he told them what it did.

Then Hume came along and said that actually, the kind of thing Newton did was the only kind of thing the human mind could ever do.”

So proud of the doctors and nurses, support staff and literally everyone working on this day of torrential snow and emergency shut down in Boston. Did a couple of Breast Cancer cases that couldn’t wait, fed the hard working residents… waiting to safely go home
