Einstein says intelligent people ignore, but try ignoring air resistance in your physics calculations and reality will smack you right in the face! The perfect blend of philosophical wisdom and scientific hubris. Every physics student knows that magical moment when they think "I'm so smart, I'll just ignore this pesky variable" only to watch their predictions crash spectacularly against experimental results. Nature doesn't care about your simplified models—she's got drag coefficients and she's not afraid to use them!
