APAD: Black holes are where God divided by zero

I was trying to find a quote wrt library this morning, but ran into this funny one inside an Einstein's quote collection.

We all know that dividing by zero is impossible, as it retults a logical error: n/0 = infinite or undifiend. The rules of math break down when one tries to divide by zero.  God is already mysterious, God divided by zero is beyond human comprehension. That is exactly what inside black holes is: singularity.

Actually this quote can't be from Einstein, because the phrase "black hole" was coined in the 1960s by John Wheeler, over a decade after Einstein's death. But Einstein's Theory of General Relativity predicted the existence of black holes.  Thus the misquote, perhaps (note the quote is believed from comedian Steven Wright ;-).

Sorry for the boring topic. But think about it, Nature and our lives are full of unknowns too, just like black holes, one may never know what tomorrow, next week, month, year will bring, even when we try.  But that also makes living more interesting, be it trouble or fun.

eg, my oak milk porridge just overflowed everywhere over the stove (I forgot about the running sove again) when I was writing this, c'est la vie 

Nevertheless, hope today brings peace and happiness to you all.

What actually is an astronomical black hole? A dark hollow?

or solid substance of extreme gravity, light can't escape?

Agreed. The machine needs tons of grease.

I lost myself, 0 volume X infinit density is what?

Don't feel bad. It's the blackhole. Any would've lost :-)))
