The quantum hypothesis will eventually find its exact expression in certain equations which will be a more exact formulation of the law of causality. — Max Planck Copy Share Image
Hitherto the principle of causality was universally accepted as an indispensable postulate of scientific research, but now we are told by some physicists that it must be thrown overboard. The fact that such an extraordinary opinion should be expressed in… — Max Planck Copy Share Image
The entire world we apprehend through our senses is no more than a tiny fragment in the vastness of Nature. — Max Planck Copy Share
I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that… — Max Planck Copy Share
It was not by accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were deeply religious souls. — Max Planck Copy Share
As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you… — Max Planck Copy Share
“All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most… — Max Planck Copy Share
The Theory of Relativity confers an absolute meaning on a magnitude which in classical theory has only a relative significance: the velocity of light.… — Max Planck Copy Share
An experiment is a question which science poses to Nature and a measurement is the recording of Nature's answer. — Max Planck Copy Share
Scientific work will never stop, and it would be terrible if it did. If there were no more problems, you would put your hands… — Max Planck Copy Share
We cannot rest and sit down lest we rust and decay. Health is maintained only through work. And as it is with all life… — Max Planck Copy Share
There can never be any real opposition between religion and science; for the one is the complement of the other. Every serious and reflective… — Max Planck Copy Share
The assumption of an absolute determinism is the essential foundation of every scientific enquiry. — Max Planck Copy Share
Science enhances the moral value of life, because it furthers a love of truth and reverence-love of truth displaying itself in the constant endeavor… — Max Planck Copy Share
Every advance in knowledge brings us face to face with the mystery of our own being. — Max Planck Copy Share
