Quora really doesn't care about being civil these days anymore. So glad i left that trash website today on july 15, 2024. They've also deleted some of my answers even though I answered it throughouly. I just can't believe what Quora has come too. The users over there are also bullies there too.
Happy Birthday Professor! Best Physics teacher of all time, you teach everything so perfectly which no one else can match. Thank you for keeping my passion of Physics alive and growing. Have a wonderful time!
L - Ludwig Boltzmann , Louis de Broglie E - Enrico Fermi , Erwin Schrodinger W - Werner Heisenberg , Wolfgang Ernst Pauli , Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen I - Isaac Newton N - Niels Bohr , Nikola Tesla
I'm on your side Walter . Political correctness makes people unhappy but also kills honesty . It makes people become false . But to what future does a path of falsehood lead ?
Prof Lewin, I am currently reading your book For the love of physics, it's the best !! A very happy birthday to you and may you have many more ! You are my hero :D✳️
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Your lectures are among the most informative AND enjoyable I have seen. I will always enjoy your sense of humor. Appreciatively, Bob
Professor Lewis, I just love you and Take Care. I am just one of your student on Your UA-cam Channel and really grateful for all your Physic knowledge that you have teach me and given to us. Thank you so much.
that means quora practice atheism :P ! They hurt my sentiments, they dont believe my GOD ^_^ ! I am not sure if Pray may take you million miles away to a planet to stuck there, but i am sure somebody certainly make it some how, it can bring you back :)
Belated Happy Birthday Sir 🎂🎂 .... In my school days, I used to fear physics perhaps mainly bcoz of the way it was taught and bcoz of our education system. Ri8 now, I am graduating in B.Tech, and donot have physics in my course , but then I found ur lectures and the rest is history. Thank u Sir ❤️
I love your humor, professor! I hope for a day that our paths will cross and meet one another. With that, we could merge our humor in a conversation and laouph together! Take care! Pavlos
Happy Belated Birthday, Dr. Walter Lewin. Honestly , I just knew you are 82 years old. You look younger and stronger than your age. Hope you live long and strong. I just finished watching your lectures about Circular and Elliptical orbits that helped me understand Kepler’sLaws. Thank you so much.
Professor Lewin I have just begun my first semester of Physics and I feel very confident with what im doing thanks to your videos. Thank You very much!
I am glad you left Quora. I love your sense of humor. You will do well no matter where your thoughts are primarily located. Once again thank you for all you do for me. I am in Boston frequently and would love to sit down and talk with you some time. My best to you, Ed Saylor
The real question is: Is the whole reality intrinsically mathematical or maths is just a good tool to try to understand the universe that surrounds us?
Is the language of physics the path to describe the whole reality, or do you think that not all reality can be described mathematically cause the limits of numbers?
Happy Birthday Professor Irwin ! I love that joke about asking if there are living beings living on the Moon. They are lunatics. Probably flat - earth believers. Have a great time in New York. Your Friend, Darryl Willard in Denver Colorado 😁😁😁
Your style is great. So it is your sense of humor. You are an icon in Physcis teaching. On the other side, those” guys appear to be so narrow minded… well, many people know how they are.
Dear professor I am happy with your both both answers...lunatics ...creature name found on 🌒 and praying a sort of assumption vector ....it's my hypothesis on null space .
why dont you try reddit ? there are many subreddits on there that love humorous answers and isnt as strict as quora. ( unless you already use it that is. )
😂😂 I want to remember you a question that I have made to you and you have gave me a funny answer.My question was:Do you have heard that cactus plant can absorb electromagnetic waves?And you have said:"Yes,I know.Do you also know that the Earth is Flat and the moon is made of green cheese?"But I have asked you seriously 😂😂
@@lecturesbywalterlewin.they9259 Ik woon in een huis omringd door de prachtige bloemen van de ochtendglorie. Er is zelfs een patch die mijn mailbox bedekt, die ik de Shaggy Dog noem. Ik stelde me voor dat als elk huis in mijn buurt gezegend zou zijn met deze mooie bloem, hoe dit een beroemde buurt zou maken. Iedereen zou hierheen komen om de Morning Glory Trail in de omgeving van Woodcreek en Sleepy Hollow te zien. Mijn geheim om ze te kweken was om niets te doen. Ik liet ze gewoon met rust terwijl vele anderen ze zouden verwijderen en als overlast zouden behandelen. Dus ik ben het eens met uw antwoord, maar voor de oorzaak. Ik ben nog niet overtuigd van de Big Bang. En misschien heb je er een beetje schuld aan dat ik het volhield. Ik zie de natuur tevoorschijn komen in een ontelbaar aantal explosies, net zoals de bloemen van de Morning Glory in bloei ontploffen, elk volgens de timing van de dag en het seizoen. Maar voor de oorzaak, ik zie niet één explosie, maar ik zie je slingeren vanaf een bal in je collegezaal. Stel je een camera voor die achteruit rijdt van MIT de ruimte in, zodat de aarde een kleine stip is, dan ons zonnestelsel en onze melkweg, enzovoort, allemaal kleine stippen. In de leegte van de ruimte en omringd door kleine lichtpuntjes vragen we ons af, welk pad van evenwicht naar deze ballen volgt, volgt de zwaartekracht van de grootste naar de kleinste schaal? Toen zag ik je video van een spinnewiel en in mijn meest creatieve tijd tussen slapen en wakker zijn zag ik je hangen aan de as van een gigantisch spinnewiel dat het wiel in precessie zette. Ik stelde me de paden voor op de kleinste schaal, vloeiend als ze zijn, frameloos, zonder spaken, maar alleen impulsmoment dat hun pad leidde. Ik plaatste mijn model van ruimte en tijd waar ik al sinds mijn tienerjaren aan werk en het paste perfect. Als kind bad ik op een avond hard dat G-d me de kracht en de gave van inzicht zou geven om mijn vader te helpen. Hij was een NASA-ingenieur en een buitengewone danser. Ik vond het antwoord waar ik naar op zoek was in de dans van de tijd, het pad van beweging en je lezingen hielpen deze ongelijksoortige delen samen te brengen, zodat ik de schepping niet in een knal zie, maar in een eeuwige dans tussen uitdijende en orbitale paden genaamd de pijl van tijd.
Happy birthday to you professor, I am watching all your old videos and lectures, I m viewer of your channel but now I love your teaching!!!!! Hope you notice me love u mr.lewin 😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘
After seeing your lectures sir I started to love that beautiful subject physics.....You a god for me. ....Love u sir....Plz sir upload something about bigbang....If it is possible...Take care sir...
Firstly... Happy birthday sir... My mechanics teacher say that you are the best teacher of physics in world... And me & my teacher also watch your videos and understand the basics of physics
All roads lead to Quora. I always end up there. Sometimes disapointed because I can't get a straight answer to my questions. Maybe you can answer. Is a neutron a proton and an electron? Someone said that and I thought it was nonsense but then I compared the mass of a neutron and a proton. The difference is pretty close to an electron.
Hello Prof. Walter. I have two questions? 1. Do you believe that god exist? I am maybe so rude by asking this question, but your answer is really important for me? and my second question is 2. Can physics one day explain to mankind why does life exist? Thank you.
here are answers from Stephen Hawking. I agree with his answers. 1. "God may exist, but science can explain the universe without the need for a creator." "The scientific account is complete. Theology is unnecessary." 2. Life has not yet been created in the lab. However, Universe is 13 billion years old and given the richness of options, it is inevitable. There are about 10^21 planets in our Universe. If 1 in 10 million supports life (this is a very conservative number) then there are about 10^14 planets in our Universe with life. Many forms of life will be tens of millions of years more advanced than humans many will be less advanced than humans. We should avoid (if that is possible) any direct contacts with those other forms of life as that could permanently end our present human race. *That would not be a great loss, but it would cause great suffering.*
I laughed out loud when I heard your answer sir! That’s a good reason why you quit, they shouldn’t have blocked you. I said something funny for someone who asked what 4+4 was and I wasn’t blocked. That’s not fair of them. But good choice on leaving Quora!
The problem with Quora is that it intends to protect users from offenses but actually protects only those who ask questions from receiving offensive answers, without considering how much can be offended by certain questions (well beyond the limit of idiocy) those who receive them. It is a place where it is absolutely impossible to make humor or irony. They take themselves too seriously and, with this attitude, they have already lost a large number of really good contributors, who have preferred to abandon it rather than submit to such obtuse regulation. So, dear Prof. Lewin, you're in good company (although I know that you do not care much about this and that you would still go straight for your way, with the consistency you've always shown). The world can very well live without Quora; I do not know how much Quora could go on without valid people who frequent it. Irony (especially self-irony) is one of the hallmarks of intelligent people; if Quora continues to ostracize all those who are ironic, in the end it will only remains with users who ask stupid questions and idiots who try to answer seriously.
Quora is (ostensibly) supposed to be a forum where people can express their own opinions. However, if those opinions don't happen to suit the moderators, look out! You are quite right - those moderators don't appear to have much of a sense of humour - but never mind, it's THEIR loss! (But we DO need to remember - it is THEIR website and it costs us absolutely NOTHING to pass comments and so, if the moderators don't like them, I suppose they have the right to ban us.
I love you Walter, I have shown your lectures to my Physics Teacher and he really fell in love with your teaching. Happy Birthday from Spain!
Sounds like you made the correct decision on that. I got a laugh out of both of your answers.

Huge respect n love from India.
Take care legend. Wish you health n happiness.
Happy birthday Professor !! Hope you had a great time. You are a huge inspiration 😊
Happy Birthday, thank you for all you do, Professor
Professor Lewis, I just love you and Take Care. I am just one of your student on Your UA-cam Channel and really grateful for all your Physic knowledge that you have teach me and given to us. Thank you so much.
Second answer was pretty reasonable :)
that means quora practice atheism :P !
They hurt my sentiments, they dont believe my GOD ^_^ !
I am not sure if Pray may take you million miles away to a planet to stuck there, but i am sure somebody certainly make it some how, it can bring you back :)
Quora are too stupid to practice atheism I.T. They are just plain stupid...that is all there is to quora.
@@rd0769 YES i think they support ATHEISM

Your sense of humor combined with the depth of your knowledge has captivated millions round the globe. I think its a loss for Quora that you left it.
Hahahaha lunatics and pray!!!!! Epic reply and sense of humour sir. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You are the best!
I guess the correct answer to the second question is "do exactly whatever you did to get there, but pointing Earth"
Perfect Answers. We love you and appreciate this incredibly, no matter what the lack-laughter officials at high posts think.
A good sense of humor will add years to each life and a smile never hurt anyone. Your style is what makes it work!
Happy birthday 🎂!!! Thanks for all your lessons! ~Russ
happy birthday professor 😉😊
Love you professor 👨🏫 happy late birthday 🍰 thank you for the guidance given by you for my physics alevel
:)
Professor Lewin I have just begun my first semester of Physics and I feel very confident with what im doing thanks to your videos. Thank You very much!
Erick Daza enjoy physics
Quora just realised, they got roasted by a physics professor and got salty.
At least you got some fun writing those responses XD
Now they only need some barbecue sauce.
I am glad you left Quora. I love your sense of humor. You will do well no matter where your thoughts are primarily located. Once again thank you for all you do for me. I am in Boston frequently and would love to sit down and talk with you some time.
My best to you,

Happiest birthday to you sir, I'm 15 and have watched all your 8.0 lecture series and I'm now in love, with physics. Thank you sir and enjoy today :)
Happy birthday professor, have a good one!!!
have you received the book and the large sheets of paper?
Lectures by Walter Lewin. They will make you ♥ Physics. Just the book sir the sheets have not
send me a note when the sheets have arrive.
Lectures by Walter Lewin. They will make you ♥ Physics. Professor, do you prefer the quantum area of physics, or the larger area of physics?
Lectures by Walter Lewin. They will make you ♥ Physics. The package arrived!!!
Happy birthday Professor 🎉stay blessed and healthy ,🎂
Cheers to you Professor, your humor and knowledge are a delight to the world
I loved both answers as well and I am still laughing over the Lunatic answer.
Also I want to ask you to ask you a question. Do You think that mathematics have been invented or discovered?
math is a language. Languages evolve.
So, there's no limit?
The real question is: Is the whole reality intrinsically mathematical or maths is just a good tool to try to understand the universe that surrounds us?
Math is the language of Physics.
Is the language of physics the path to describe the whole reality, or do you think that not all reality can be described mathematically cause the limits of numbers?
felicidades , un gran trabajo , para este maestro , un honor y respeto ..
It's their loss. You are too good for Quora, truth to be told. Kindest regards, Professor.
Happy birthday🎂 my super hero.
Live long old man 😇
Happy belated birthday to one inspirational (if slightly crazy) professor :-) Congratulations!!
Love you, professor! Greeting from China. I am in love with your lectures and sense of humor!!

People like you live in the real world, others, like Quora, live in the business world. No more need be said.
Happy Birthday Professor. You're awesome. All the way from Nepal

Don't worry about quora prof! your videos are very much appreciated!!
Professor Walter, do you believe that we will ever find the answer on the question, Why do we exist? Greetings from Utrecht :)

Congratulations for your birthday, despite I am saying this on the 24th april this year!!
U are right to leave quora....i am very inspired by you ..maybe u r the best physicist in my opinion.. happy birthday 🤗🤗
