Supersymmetry arises naturally in string theory.

This is a rather unusual situation in physics. We perform approximate calculations which are valid only in some regime and this gives us the exact answer. This is a theorist's heaven- exact results with approximate methods.

Two lines must meet at a point. Therefore there are only two surprises here.
Nathan Seiberg -
The standard model gives us an accuracy of ten decimal digits, this is an amazing success that has never been achieved before in science.
Nathan Seiberg -
I am almost certain that space and time are illusions. These are primitive notions that will be replaced by something more sophisticated.
Nathan Seiberg -
Ultimately, we hope to find a fundamental theory that explains everything with no input parameters.
Nathan Seiberg -
What will the greatest experiment discover? I have no idea!, maybe nothing!, If we won't check, we will never know. In science there is never a guarantee of success. If you understood this last sentence, then you understood the most important message of this lecture.

Whenever you work on something and try to solve one problem, and you end up helping or solving many other problems, it is a sign that what you are doing is good.
