The best representation of any object is the object itself.


The best representation of any object is the object itself. The photo is a hang glider being piloted by a man who lost the use of his legs as a youngster. Now he makes a living doing acrobatics in the hang glider at airshows.
But back to my opening argument. Obviously true, or is it but a signpost on the way to the Ultimate Truth? Could there be a better representation of the Mona Lisa than Mona herself? Could there be a representation of any person that surpasses the person themselves? Is this a statement consistent with relativity or quantum mechanics? Or just another case of stumbling around in the dark? It would appear to be true but I leave the derivation to the reader.
Quantum puzzles are proof that we're all on this flight together.
