If we look at the way the universe behaves, quantum mechanics gives us fundamental, unavoidable indeterminacy, so that alternative histories of the universe can…

“Newton's equations of absolute exactitude and certainty ("classical determinism") were replaced by Schrodinger's new equations and Heisenberg's mathematics of fuzziness, indeterminacy, and probability.”

— Leon M. Lederman

Instead, I was interested in what I guess I could call narrative indeterminacy, in questioning the apparent, taken-for-granted authority of any particular representation of…

“Without the possibility of error and real indeterminacy implied by the quantum theory, human liberty is meaningless.”

Faith is not so much a binary pole as a quantum state, which tends to indeterminacy when closely examined.

— John Updike

“Postmodernism’s collapse into indeterminacy is a significant weakness, yet its recognition of the implications of narratives, communities, embodiment, history, race, sex, and class make…
