Embiggen, the fauxcabulary word created for an episode of The Simpsons, has found its way into string theory.
Here’s the original quote from The Simpsons episode, Lisa the Iconoclast:
A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man.

Memory
And you wait, await the
one thing
that will infinitely increase
your life;the gigantic, the
stupendous,
the awakening of stones,
depths turned round
toward you.
The volumes in brown and
gold
flicker dimly on the
bookshelves;
and you think of lands
traveled through,
of paintings, of the
garments
of women lost and found.
And then all at once you
know; that was it.
You rise, and there stands
before you
the fear and prayer and
shape
of a vanished year.(from yama-bato)
