Daily Quote
Fundamental to Judaism is the belief in One G-d, and the quest to seek unity in all things... What is truly remarkable is that this idea has also gained prominence in the sciences, particularly in recent years.
Increasingly, scientific theory and research is focusing on the endeavor to express all physical phenomena in a single formula and, more importantly, to discover the singular unifying force which underlies all other forces, so that all other forces are shown to be aspects and outgrowths of this singular force.
–The Lubavitcher Rebbe
