Leibniz

Quote: "With Leibniz the mind and the hand went together so closely that thinking and writing were almost a single act, and he coped with the flood of his thoughts by writing them down." Comment:This quote really stood out to me because of the way it explains how everything literally happened without giving to much or too little. The information that was inferred in this quote was made to be very well understood by everyone, giving that it intended a simple message. In my understanding it was clear to me that there are various things that make up the world today, and without any of them nothing would have existed. One thing leads to another and once we realize it, there we have the world that we see everyday, growing and growing. And it really amazes me that it all happened very fast to a point where nobody can define the accuracy of the time period in which the Universe had started in. Connection: My connection to this is personal. Reading this has made me open my mind to many curiosities in life that I would like to know more about. As I was growing up I always wandered where everything came from and how everything was made, but I guess that's everyone. But as time went by I started noticing that there were certain beliefs and facts that people had of the universe. And at the time, I only believed in one certain person that could possibly ever create such a world, and that was God. And as of now I'm almost in between my beliefs and the facts researchers have came across. Question: How do the small atoms know what to form? What guides them? Do people really now why the ocean is salty? Whats the key of the start of the universe?
