@mariapopova I believe you correctly surmise “how staggered (Emily Dickinson’s) pliant young mind must have been to learn that scientists had just proven the existence of atoms.”

But #physicists didn’t accept the #AtomicTheory until #AlbertEinstein demonstrated its verity through Brownian motion over a *century* after #JohnDalton proposed it.

Both ‘particle #chemistry ‘ and #QuantumChemistry predate their #physics counterparts by a century since Dalton quantized *mass*!

Not just a pretty face!

#marilynmonroe with her enchanting grace and candid wit, once suggested to #AlbertEinstein, "We could have a baby together. He would come out beautiful like me and smart like you."

The father of relativity, never one to miss a beat, allegedly quipped back, "Well, I think he would come out faster with my beauty and your intelligence."

Unbeknownst to many at the time, Marilyn Monroe's IQ was a staggering 165, outpacing even Einstein's by five points.
