In the book, I make the point that here we have string theory and here we have twistor theory and we don't know if either one of them is the right approach to nature. ↗

My own way of thinking is to ponder long and I hope deeply on problems and for a long time which I keep away for years and years and I never really let them go. ↗

Ordinary photons do have spin, they have a notion of helicity so they spin around their direction on motion. ↗

People think of these eureka moments and my feeling is that they tend to be little things, a little realisation and then a little realisation built on that. ↗

So what I'm saying is why don't we think about changing Schrodinger's equation at some level when masses become too big at the level that you might have to worry about Einstein's general relativity. ↗

The basic theory in twistor theory is not to add extra dimensions. ↗

The idea is if you use those two shapes and try to colour the plane with them so the colours match, then the only way that you can do this is to produce a pattern which never repeats itself. ↗

Well I didn't actually see the Matrix but I've seen other movies where with similar sorts of themes. ↗
