AW: lieblingszitat
If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations - then so much worse for Maxwell's equations.
If it is found to be contradicted by observation - well, these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes.
But if your theory is found to be against the second law of thermodynamics I can give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humilation.
Arthur S. Eddington (British Astrophysicist, 18882-1933) in The nature of the Physical World (1928)
