Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The most famous aphorisms

Scolding is the argument of the wrong.
The greatest mistake in education is excessive haste.
Seeing injustice and keeping silent means participating in it yourself.
Every power is from God, I admit it, but every disease is from Him. Does this mean that it is forbidden to call a doctor?
All anger comes from impotence.
Every organism begins to die from the moment of birth and carries within itself the causes of its impending destruction.
The highest pleasure is to be content with yourself.
Let childhood mature in childhood.
Fools are not shy, although shyness accepts all kinds of stupidity.
If spouses love each other for many years, then falling in love imperceptibly turns into a sweet habit and ardent passion is replaced by tender friendship.
If vanity made someone happy, then surely that someone was a fool.
The wife of a coal miner is more respectable than the sovereign's mistress.
A wife who seeks power becomes a tyrant of her husband, and a master who has become a slave is a ridiculous and miserable creature.
Legislative power is the heart of the state, executive power is its brain.
Being engaged in business, they speak only when there is something to say, but in idleness there is a need to talk continuously.
Knowing good is more important than knowing much.
Gold and silver - in the opinion of the poet, iron and bread - in the opinion of the philosopher - this is what civilized people and destroyed the human race.
True education consists not so much in rules as in exercises.
When the tongue is not constrained by anything, everyone is constrained.
Only great events create great people.
Only a strong state provides freedom to its citizens.
To love deeply is to forget about yourself.
People will always be what women make them, so if you want great and virtuous people, inspire women what greatness and virtue are.
My job is to tell the truth, not make people believe in it.
Popular heroism is a momentary impulse, followed by weakness and decline in strength. It is necessary to base the freedom of the people on their way of life, and not on their passions.
One cannot be dishonored who does not fear death.
Only one lesson in morality is suitable for childhood and is extremely important for any age - this is not to do harm to anyone.
Take away from our heart the love of goodness - you will take away all the charm of life.
What is beautiful is what is not.
Homeland cannot exist without freedom, freedom without virtue, virtue without citizens. You will have everything if you educate citizens; without this, everything, starting with the rulers of the state, will be only miserable slaves.
Life itself means nothing: its price depends on its use.
Hula is a very convenient thing: they attack with a single word, but you need whole pages to defend.
The kingdom of a woman is the kingdom of tenderness, subtlety and tolerance.
The less people know, the more extensive their knowledge seems to them.
Excessive joy sheds tears rather than laughter.
The language of the mind will be heard if it goes through the heart.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

The most dangerous countries 06.12.2011

Scientists at the United Nations University in Bonn (Germany), summing up the results of natural disasters from 1970 to 2010, deduced for each of the 173 countries covered by statistics, a disaster risk index.

This took into account not only the likelihood of, for example, an earthquake, drought, typhoon or tsunami, but also how strong the infrastructure is, whether the available means of protection are reliable and how quickly the state can cope with a disaster and its consequences. The higher the index, the more dangerous life.

The most dangerous for living were the small island states of the Pacific Ocean - Vanuatu (risk index 32) and Tonga (29,08). The safest are Qatar (risk index 0,02) and Malta (0,72). Life in Russia is slightly more dangerous than in Belgium (3,56 versus 3,51) or Ukraine (3,02), but safer than in the US (3,72) or England (3,61).
