Ghostly Greek Geometry: Sphere:
"what we mean by a sphere is an aggregate of events approximately equidistant in all directions from one event. They may be of very relative high frequency, of such a high frequency that you can't resolve it and it looks continuous to your eye, and that you call a sphere... That is the way we found we were fooled by the pneumatic bags. They were full of holes too."
