Comments:

The tiles in Entin Square, which is located at the entrance to Tel Aviv University, include covertions and comments by scientists and other intellectuals.

The quote is from a letter written by Newton to the English scientist and philosopher Robert Hooke in 1676

Three months earlier, the tiles were photographed in the same square. During the photograph, it was discovered that a number of tiles had been removed and replaced by other tiles . In this tile the design is different, see the other tile
