愛因斯坦的表白

A Letter from Einstein to His Daughter

\"When I proposed the theory of relativity， very few understood me， and what I will reveal now to transmit to mankind will also collide① with misunderstanding and prejudice in the world.

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.

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. To give visibility to love， I made a simple substitution in my most famous equation②. 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.

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. However， each individual carries within them a small but powerful generator of LOVE whose energy is waiting to be released. 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 quintessence③ of Life！

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！\".

Your father，

“當我提出相對論的觀點時，很少有人能理解我，我想給人類揭示的東西也會與這世界上存在的誤解和偏見所沖突。

迄今為止，仍然存在一股強大的力量還沒有科學的解釋。這種勢力包括并掌控著其他所有的事情，甚至是處在所有的宇宙實驗現象之中，不過這些還沒有被我們認知。這種全球性的力量就是愛。

這種力量解釋了一切并且賦予生命以意義。這是被我們忽略已久的不穩定的力量，有可能是因為我們害怕愛，因為這是宇宙中僅有的人類還不能以意志驅使的力量。為了給愛一種可見性，我做了一個十分簡單的著名的方程式。如果不是E=mc2，我們會接受拯救世界的能量可以通過愛乘以光速的平方，因而我們得出結論，愛是最強大的力量，因為它沒有限制。

也許我們還沒有準備好去制造一枚愛的炸彈，一個足以完全破壞仇恨，自私和貪婪，毀滅地球的愛的炸彈。然而，每個人都帶著雖然渺小卻強大的愛的能量，這些能量正靜待釋放。當我們學會給予和接受這個宇宙能量，親愛的麗瑟爾，我們會堅信，愛可以戰勝一切，可以超越一切，因為愛是生命的精髓。

我深深后悔沒有能夠表達我心里的情感，這對你的情感已在我的生命里慢慢變少。也許現在道歉已經太晚，但因為時間是相對的，我需要告訴你，我愛你，謝謝你，我已經有了最終的答案！”

你的父親：阿爾伯特
