two half quotes make a whole quote

[reverancepavane]

"I once dated a man who taught quantum physics. I learned two things that night. "The first being, if you ask a quantum physicist to explain how gravity works – not what it is, not how it behaves, but how it works – he will first talk himself in circles, then wind up crying, and finally, sometime between entrée and dessert, call you a bitch and leave. "The second revelation came as I sat at the bar in morose solitude pondering the cantilevered relationship between bartender's gut and lower extremities. And this is important, so pay attention. Before the Big Bang – before time itself; before matter, energy, velocity – there existed a single immeasurable state called yearning. This is the special force that on a day before there were days obliterated nothing into everything. It is the unseen strings tying planets to stars. It's the maddening want, we feel from first breath to last life." – Marshall Mary Shannon In Plain Sight

What, something about topology and doughnuts and fibre bundles?

(I like the idea of yearning though)
