Will be whether the prediction of Great Visionary?

[Yuri Danoyan]

"Physicist. Philosopher. Poet. Visionary. Guru. John Archibald Wheeler, who died April 13 at age 96, wore all of these hats in his efforts to penetrate the nature of ultimate reality."(New Scientist,April 15,2008)

 

I would like reminding couple quotations from John Wheeler:

 

"Behind it all is surely an idea so simple, so beautiful, that when we grasp it - in a decade, a century, or a millennium - we will all say to each other, how could it have been otherwise? How could we have been so stupid?"

 

"Some day a door will surely open and expose the glittering central mechanism of the world in its beauty and simplicity." (Gravitation,p.1197)

 

FIrst quotation wide spread on the Internet.

Other version is :"Behind it all is surely an idea so simple, so beautiful so compelling that when-in a decade, a century, a millennium-- we grasp it, we will say to each other, how could it have been otherwise? How can we have been so blind for so long?"

 

Other version" "I don't know whether it will be one year or a decade, but I think we can and will understand. That's the central thing I would like to stand for. We can and will understand."

 

All these quotes i gave for discussing on topic:

"Whether true prediction of Great Visionary?"

Is it possible to find out simple and non-sophisticated description Laws of Nature?
