“John Archibald Wheeler, the visionary Princeton physicist who was Bohr’s disciple, once pointed out that the future and the past are theory. They exist only in records and the thoughts of the present, a fulcrum, in which all stories end and begin.
A single moment of insight or beauty or grace — like hitting a perfect towering drive off the eighth tee — can illuminate eternity.
It all depends on how you look at it.
