The universe's favorite shape, because nature hates corners and loves not falling over.
means The quality of being curved or circular, with no edges or corners — a smooth, continuous surface or outline.
from A native English formation: the adjective 'round' (borrowed in the Middle English period from Old French 'ront/reond', which traces back to Latin 'rotundus' — itself from 'rota,' meaning wheel) plus the common suffix '-ness,' which turns a quality into a noun. So roundness is, quite literally, 'wheel-shaped-ness' made abstract.
