EWolfe Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 "Entropy is the strongest force in the universe" was what I read on the wall of the workplace. I laughed at that, a believer in the other, equally strong force. Later, when I saw the author, I said: "I had a laugh at you writing." He looked up at me with an air of scientific detatchment that said, without words, his was a static universe. At that moment I knew that my belief - that will is as strong of a force as entropy - was wrong to him. But, I thought, I feel a joyous kind of wrong, a celebration of wrong, a reminder of the fetters of ceaseless rightness. I laughed again, this time at the miracle of the dance of will and entropy, here in the dynamic universe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_b Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 not only that, but in the big scheme of things work results in further entropy than no work would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
