The minds of beautiful people

The first was Srinivasa Ramanujan, a mathematician famous for his intuitive genius.
The second was Paul Dirac, a physicist famous for his prediction of anti-matter.

S. Ramanujan was a shy, self-taught poor prodigy who got ideas from the goddess in his dreams.
Paul Dirac had a troubled childhood and was a man of few words preferring physics to humans.

One discovered a paradoxical equation: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + · · · + ∞ = -1/12

——

“An equation means nothing to me unless it expresses a thought of God”, S. Ramanujan
“Pick a flower on Earth and you move the farthest star”, P. Dirac
