“Love is the one thing that transcends time and space.” － Brand

爱才是超越时间和空间的 （星际迷航中片段，当燃料有限抉择去哪个星球的时候，Brand说道）

爱因斯坦广义相对论的引力波预言在百年后的今天被实验验证，其实他除了作为最伟大的理论物理学家，还横跨天文学，文学，音乐等领域。可以说他集科学、文艺和哲学于一身。这三者彼此协调，互为补充，相互促进，创造了一种和谐的力与美的结合。

在上世纪80年代末，她女儿Lieserl将他写的1400封信捐给了希伯来大学。一直到爱因斯坦死后20年才公开部分内容。下面就是他写给女儿Lieserl的信，文笔优美，传递出一种对人类命运的精髓解读，和相信爱无穷力量的呐喊！

“When I proposed the theory of relativity, very few understood me, and what I will reveal now to transmit to mankind will also collide with the misunderstanding and prejudice in the world.

当我提出相对论时候，知己甚少，而今天我要传达的更与这个世界的误解和偏见格格不入。

I ask you to guard the letters as long as necessary, years, decades, until society is advanced enough to accept what I will explain below.

我希望你能好好保存这些邮件，也许几年，几十年后，直到社会进化到能接受我的观点。

There is an extremely powerful force that, so far, science has not found a formal explanation to. It is a force that includes and governs all others, and is even behind any phenomenon operating in the universe and has not yet been identified by us. This universal force is LOVE.

有一种极其强大的力量，在科学届也无法解释。这是一种统治其他所有的宇宙运行的现象却不被我们认知的力量。这种伟大的力量叫“爱”。

When scientists looked for a unified theory of the universe they forgot the most powerful unseen force. Love is Light, that enlightens those who Give and Receive it. Love is gravity, because it makes some people feel attracted to others. Love is power, because it multiplies the best we have, and allows humanity not to be extinguished in their blind selfishness. Love unfolds and reveals. For LOVE we live and die. Love is God and God is Love.

当科学家去寻找宇宙的大一统理论，他们却忘却了一些无形之力。爱是光明，它点亮了那些给予和获取的人们。爱是引力，因为它让人们彼此吸引。爱是能量，它产生最美好的东西，并让人们不被他们盲目的自私而压制。爱能绽放，爱能昭示。为了爱我们生存和死亡。爱是上帝，上帝就是爱！

This force explains everything and gives meaning to life. This is the variable that we have ignored for too long, maybe because we are afraid of love because it is the only energy in the universe that man has not learned to drive at will.

这种力量解释万物也给予生命的意义。这个变量我们无视了太久，也许因为我们害怕爱，因为这是宇宙中我们人类唯一至今还无法驾驭的力量！

To give visibility to love, I made a simple substitution in my most famous equation. If instead of E = mc² we accept that the energy to heal the world can be obtained through love multiplied by the speed of light squared, we arrive at the conclusion that love is the most powerful force there is, because it has no limits.

为了解释它，我把最有名的公式E=mc² 做个简单替代。如果大家接受这个能量来治愈世界，那么爱乘以光速的平方，我们就得到这个结论：爱是最伟大的力量，因为它是无限的！

After the failure of humanity in the use and control of the other forces of the universe that have turned against us, it is urgent that we nourish ourselves with another kind of energy…

在人类无法使用控制宇宙中其他的力量之后，我们迫切需要用另一种能量去滋补自己。

If we want our species to survive, if we are to find meaning in life, if we want to save the world and every sentient being that inhabits it, love is the one and only answer.

如果想让我们的宗族生存，如果我们想要找到生活意义，如果想要拯救世界和居住在地球的所有生灵，爱是唯一的答案！

Perhaps we are not yet ready to make a bomb of love, a device powerful enough to entirely destroy the hate, selfishness and greed that devastate the planet.

也许我们还没有准备好爱的炸药，一种强大武器去摧毁那些让星球毁灭的仇恨，自私，贪欲。

However, each individual carries within them a small but powerful generator of LOVE whose energy is waiting to be released.

但每个人都携带了一些许却可以等待释放出强大力量的“爱”的发电机。

When we learn to give and receive this universal energy, dear Lieserl, we will have affirmed that Love conquers all, is able to transcend everything and anything, because Love is the quintessence of Life!

当我们学会给予和获取这种强力的时候，亲爱的Lieserl，我们会确认爱征服一切，有能力去传递任何信息，因为爱是生命的精华。

I deeply regret not having been able to express what is in my heart, which has quietly beaten for you all my life. Maybe it's too late to apologize, but as TIME is relative, I need to tell you that I love you and thanks to you I have reached the ultimate answer！！ ”

我深深后悔没有能够表达我内心的东西，这些让我一生都被鞭挞。现在也许道歉太迟了，但“时间”也是相对的，我想告诉你：我爱你并感谢你让我知道了最终的答案！

Your father,
