whats the most famous quote?

one small step for man

351.000.000 hits

the world's a stage

3.060.000.000

oh come on poor neil

edit

why am i the only one who has surprising the succes it had a line from a play

to be or not to be

1.270.000.000 hits

the world's a stage

3.060.000.000

yeah but never mind im crazy

can you explain that succes unless he was right and the world is staged by people who have acces to time travel tech in detriment of those who make history?

end of eternity by asimov anyone?

edit:

also how did eratosthenes measure 800 km distance between syene and alexandria to obtain earth radius, history its a joke:

according history he paid a kid a gloden coin to go the 800 km counting steps

i think he was a lucky stupid, he could have perfectly measure it from the top of the alexandria tower by measuring how much lower is the sea horizont from the top of the tower than the true horizont

anyone knows how much amplifies a 10% of the kid counting wrong the steps would amplify into the obtained radius?

besides this experiment is intrinsecally flawed:

it can show earth radius for an infinite distant sun or obtain sun distance in a flat earth

measuring sea horzont from the top of a tower seems a much better way to measure earth radius
