Everything that can happen, does. That's quantum mechanics. But this does not mean everything happens. The rest of physics is about describing… — Antony Garrett Lisi Copy Share Image
It was not possible to formulate the laws of quantum mechanics in a fully consistent way without reference to the consciousness. — Eugene Wigner Copy Share Image

Quantum field theory was originally developed for the treatment of electrodynamics, immediately after the completion of quantum mechanics and the discovery of… — David Gross Copy Share Image
The scientists often have more unfettered imaginations than current philosophers do. Relativity theory came as a complete surprise to philosophers, and so… — Robert Nozick Copy Share Image
“There is a mathematical underpinning that you must first acquire, mastery of each mathematical subdiscipline leading you to the threshold of the… — Carl Sagan Copy Share Image
“The key shortcoming of the multiverse theory, however, is that it appeals to something outside the universe, namely, a vast ensemble of… — Steven J. Dick Copy Share Image
“As mathematicians were uncovering the connection between zero and infinity, physicists began to encounter zeros in the natural world; zero crossed over… — Charles Seife Copy Share Image
