if you can keep your head when all about you
are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
but make allowance for their doubting too:
if you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
or being hated don't give way to hating,
and yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

if you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
if you can think - and not make thoughts your aim,
if you can meet with triumph and disaster
and treat those two impostors just the same:.
if you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
and stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;

if you can make one heap of all your winnings
and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
and lose, and start again at your beginnings,
and never breathe a word about your loss:
if you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
to serve your turn long after they are gone,
and so hold on when there is nothing in you
except the will which says to them: "hold on!"

if you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
if all men count with you, but none too much:
if you can fill the unforgiving minute
with sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
yours is the earth and everything that's in it,
and - which is more - you'll be a man, my son!

probably the one and only politician/president who said "if one day, my words are against science, choose science." he still inspires turkish people as well as elon musk

einstein’s biggest idea was basically this:

time and space are not fixed. they can stretch and bend.

really heavy things, like stars and planets, bend space around them. that bending is what we feel as gravity.

and if you move really, really fast, time can actually pass differently for you than for someone standing still.

he also showed that mass and energy are basically two forms of the same thing:

e = mc^2

isaac newton basically helped write the rules for how we understand motion, gravity, and light.

udictio’s logo and theme color. spent quite a bit of time finding the turquoise tone.

let me start with my rating: 8 out of 10.

we saw the film on opening day, and the theater was about 85 percent full. apple went all in on this one. you can feel that massive 300 million dollar budget throughout the film. the racing scenes are absolutely stunning. outside the races, though, some parts felt a bit cliche and surface-level.

brad pitt, on the other hand, doesn't seem to age at all. it's honestly impressive. the high-energy race scenes gave me a bit of a headache afterward, but i was fully engaged for the entire two and a half hours and never got bored.

i'm not sure what kind of deal apple has with formula 1, but with a film like this, it's pretty clear that f1's growing popularity in the u.s. is only going to keep rising. i wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing apple and formula 1 show up together a lot more often in the future.

it's the unfortunate, clumsy name for a tiny clump of poop that gets stuck in body hair near the butt. it's a word my wife taught me.

art is a beautiful lie that makes people see the truth*

is derived from the word "teyshas" (meaning friends) in native american.

the world's first city settlement (catalhoyuk) and the first political entity in the world (the hittite empire) rose up on the lands of anatolia.
