dbp:quote Suppose that in one night all the dimensions of the universe became a thousand times larger. The world will remain similar to itself... Only, what was formerly a metre long will now measure a kilometre, and what was a millimetre long will become a metre... When I awake in the morning what will be my feeling in face of such an astonishing transformation? Well, I shall not notice anything at all. The most exact measures will be incapable of revealing anything of this tremendous change... In reality it would be better to say that as space is relative, nothing at all has happened, and that it is for that reason that we have noticed nothing. (en) Today I woke up certain, as certain as any one could ever be about anything, and I knew that everything had doubled in size overnight. (en)
