“It is not a very pleasing spectacle to observe uncultivated ignorance and crudity of mind, with neither form nor taste, without the capacity to concentrate its thoughts on an abstract proposition, still less on a connected statement of such propositions, confidently proclaiming itself to be intellectual freedom and”

“But it must not be forgotten that ‘politics’ has been conceived as a continuation, if not exactly and directly of war, at least of the military model as a fundamental means of preventing civil disorder.”
― Michel Foucault, quote from Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison
“(Alexander) Friedmann sólo dedujo un modelo de universo, pero, si sus suposiciones son correctas, hay en realidad tres posibles tipos de soluciones de las ecuaciones de Einstein, es decir, tres diferentes tipos de modelos de Friedmann, y tres diferentes comportamientos del universo.
1. En el primer tipo de solución (el que descubrió Friedmann) el universo se expande con suficiente lentitud como para que la atracción gravitatoria entre las galaxias vaya frenando la expansión hasta llegar a detenerla, tras lo cual las galaxias empiezan a aproximarse las unas a las otras y el universo se contrae.
2. En el segundo tipo de solución, el universo se expande tan rápidamente que la atracción gravitatoria no puede llegar a frenarlo nunca, aunque sí va reduciendo su ritmo de expansión.
3. Finalmente, en un tercer tipo de solución, el universo se expande con el ritmo justo para impedir que se vuelva a colapsar. La velocidad con que las galaxias se separan va disminuyendo progresivamente, pero nunca llega a alcanzar el valor cero.

Otras observaciones recientes indican que la expansión del universo en realidad no se está frenando, sino que se está acelerando.”

A Child's Garden of...BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
