德谟克利特 Democritus (460BC):
#宇宙中只有原子和虚空
#原子不可分割,永恒运动于虚空
#原子=存在,虚空=不存在,不存在与存在是相对的
#万物变化归结于原子的数量排列与形状
#神不存在,灵魂也是由原子构成
atomic hypothesis
唯物主义
#人本能求乐避苦,乐是精神层面的乐
#道德应被实践
#民主主义democracy

巴门尼德 Empedocles:
#存在即存在,不存在即不存在
#存在者不生不灭不变
形而上学
由本源与派生物衍生到世界的本质与现象
第一个提出存在,和真理与意见的学说
一种认为:存在者不存在,非存在者必然存在。而巴门尼德认为,既然是不存在,就没有办法认识,也就不能把它说出来,因而这纯粹是一种无稽之谈。另一种认为,存在者与非存在者既同一又不同一,一切事物都有正反两个方向,这是赫拉克利特的观点。而这种观点被他称作“两头彷徨的”、“无判断力的群氓的见解”。他自己的主张是:“存在者存在,不可能不存在,而非存在者则不可能存在。”
就吐槽一下,哲学版绕口令……
毕达哥拉斯 Pythagoras:
#宇宙本源是数
-数到点,点到线,线到平面,平面到立体,立体到可感元素火水土气
#数可度量一切
泰勒斯 Thales of Miletus:
#水是万物本源
-基本元素
-万物普遍联系,统一于水
-万物是水的变化形态,水是本体
唯物主义宇宙观,摆脱神话宗教
赫拉克里特 Heracleitus:
#火是世界本源
#火、水、土的规律运动
#一切皆流,无物常驻
-太阳每天是新的
-我们存在又不存在
-人不能两次踏入同一条河流(most famous quote)

So what keeps the world stable and cool?
Life does. Trillions upon trillions of tiny marine organisms that most of us have neverheard of—foraminiferans and coccoliths and calcareous algae—capture atmospheric carbon,in the form of carbon dioxide, when it falls as rain and use it (in combination with [...]
多种多样的生命在维持自然的平衡。让人意想不到。
Clair Patterson died in 1995. He didn’t win a Nobel Prize for his work. Geologists neverdo. Nor, more puzzlingly, did he gain any fame or even much attention from half a century ofconsistent and increasingly selfless achievement. A good case could be made that he was themost influential geologist of[...]
The ones who made great contribution to this world but received little fame or appreciation.

All science is either physics or stampcollecting
Somehow it reminds me of Sheldon XD
Mendeleyev was said to have been inspired by the card game known as solitaire in NorthAmerica and patience elsewhere, wherein cards are arranged by suit horizontally and bynumber vertically.

Scheele’s one notable shortcoming was a curious insistence on tasting a little of everythinghe worked with, including such notoriously disagreeable substances as mercury, prussic acid(another of his discoveries), and hydrocyanic acid
想起这位仁兄的经典悲剧故事了……

Although Penzias and Wilson had not been looking for cosmic background radiation,didn’t know what it was when they had found it, and hadn’t described or interpreted itscharacter in any paper, they received the 1978 Nobel Prize in physics. The Princetonresearchers got only sympathy. According to Den[...]
One good example for argument. #1
第十回就见识到了作者丰富的想像力!各种幻想中的奇珍异兽!幻想中却依旧透露着中国传统价值观,以及一些普遍的人的渴望(比如信仰之跃啊延年益寿啊)。
人与禽兽之别,全在顶上灵光。禽兽顶上无光,如果然之类,纵有微光,亦甚稀罕。人之天良不灭,顶上必有灵光,虎豹看见,即远远回避。倘天良丧尽,罪大恶极,消尽灵光,虎豹看见与禽兽无异,他才吃了。至于灵光或多或少总在为人善恶分别。有善无恶,自然灵光数丈,不独虎豹看见逃窜,一切鬼怪莫不远避。即如那个果然,一心要救死然回生,只管守住啼哭。看他那般行为,虽是兽面,心里却怀义气,所谓‘兽面人心’,顶上岂无灵光?纵让大虫觌面,也不伤他。大虫见了‘兽面人心’的既不敢伤,若见了‘人面兽心’的如何不啖!世人只知恨那虎豹伤人,那知有这缘故。
中国传统中的“善恶终有报”的观念。人类在各种不同世界观中总是一种带着人文关怀光圈的存在,自恃世间更高等的存在,比如本文中形象化的“光圈”,或者象征性的“神给予的管理万物的使命”。我不是很喜欢啦!
朕 自进宫以来,所有上林苑、群劳圃各花,每于早晚,俱令宫人加意浇灌,百般培养,自号 ‘督花天王’。因素喜牡丹,尤加爱护:冬日则围布幔以避严霜,夏日则遮凉篷以避烈日。 三十余年,习以为常。朕待此花,可谓深仁厚泽。不意今日群芳大放,彼独无花。负恩昧 良,莫此为甚!”分付太监:“即将各处牡丹,逐根掘起,多架柴炭,立时烧毁。
不服天时,逆我者亡;手段狠辣,跃然纸上。
