Paul Ehrenfest quotation



Hello--

I was working and came across the following quote by Paul Ehrenfest as
reported by Victor Weisskopf in his book "Physics in the Twentieth Century:
Selected Essays" (p. 3):

"Physics is simple, but subtle."

Thought that I'd pass it along as I believe that it says a lot.
