特斯拉在某些人的眼中在理论物理方面也是一民科，他曾指出：“I hold that space cannot be curved, for the simple reason that it can have no properties. It might as well be said that God has properties. He has not, but only attributes and these are of our own making. Of properties we can only speak when dealing with matter filling the space. To say that in the presence of large bodies space becomes curved is equivalent to stating that something can act upon nothing. I, for one, refuse to subscribe to such a view.” ————（ New York Herald Tribune, 11 September 1932）

译文：我坚持认为空间不可能被扭曲，原因很简单：空间没有任何属性。这就好像是说”上帝是有属性的“。但事实上它没有任何属性，除了那些我们人类主观附加上去的那些。我们只能在谈论那些充斥在空间内部的物质时提到属性。因此，说”巨大的空间能够被扭曲“就好比说”有东西可以作用于不存在之上“。我，因为这个原因，拒绝接受这样的一种情景。
