Very strange people, physicists - in my experience the ones who aren't dead are in some way very ill. — Douglas Adams Copy Share Image
Physicists are made of atoms. A physicist is an attempt by an atom to understand itself. — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
The mathematicians know a great deal about very little and the physicists very little about a great deal. — Stanislaw Ulam Copy Share Image
I think physicists are the Peter Pans of the human race. They never grow up and they keep their curiosity. — Isidor Isaac Rabi Copy Share Image
Like no other science, astrophysics cross-pollinate s the expertise of chemists, biologists, geologists and physicists, all to discover the past, present, and… — Neil deGrasse Tyson Copy Share Image
Scientists, especially physicists, we're presumptuous and think we can do everything better than everybody else. And one thing that I realized early… — Barry Barish Copy Share Image
What of course I would like to be writing is the story of the Red and White Dwarves and their Remembering Mirror,… — Doris Lessing Copy Share Image
Originally, the burden of proof was on physicists to prove that time travel was possible. Now the burden of proof is on… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
Most medical physicists work in the physics of radiation oncology making sure that the desired dose is given to the cancer and… — John Cameron Copy Share Image
My teacher, Hopkins, often commented on the craving for certainty that led so many physicists into mysticism or into the Church and… — Norman Pirie Copy Share Image
Medical physicists work in cooperation with doctors. A few medical physicists devote their time to research and teaching. A few get involved… — John Cameron Copy Share Image
Many respectable physicists said that they weren't going to stand for this -- partly because it was a debasement of science, but… — Douglas Adams Copy Share Image
Most 20th century academic physicists, and academia as a whole, simply did not want to touch the subject of consciousness. We have… — Edgar Mitchell Copy Share Image
Physics is an otherworld thing, it requires a taste for things unseen, even unheard of- a high degree of abstraction... These faculties… — Isidor Isaac Rabi Copy Share Image
Over the last century, physicists have used light quanta, electrons, alpha particles, X-rays, gamma-rays, protons, neutrons and exotic sub-nuclear particles for this… — Clifford Shull Copy Share Image
Chemists are, on the whole, like physicists, only 'less so'.They don't make quite the same wonderful mistakes, and much what they do… — Anthony Standen Copy Share Image
Physics has entered a remarkable era. Ideas that were once the realm of science fiction are now entering our theoretical and… — Lisa Randall Copy Share Image
Physicists only talk to physicists, economists to economists-worse still, nuclear physicists only talk to nuclear physicists and econometricians to econometricians. One wonders… — Kenneth E. Boulding Copy Share Image
The thing about physicists is that they tend to think that everything is physics. I don't. That's not what music is to… — Vijay Iyer Copy Share Image
“God is a pure mathematician!' declared British astronomer Sir James Jeans. The physical Universe does seem to be organised around elegant mathematical… — Paul Davies Copy Share Image
Quantum mechanics is so counter-intuitive, physicists have never been able to come up with a comfortable picture of how it works. — Taner Edis Copy Share Image
The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ... — Leon M. Lederman Copy Share Image
“The physicists have their hands on the doorknob. If they paid more attention to their dreams, they would know what questions to… — Jane Roberts Copy Share Image
“Already physicists are doing the basic calculations necessary to make an MRI machine fit into a cell phone.” — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
Physicists, being in no way different from the rest of the population, have short memories for what is inconvenient. — Anthony Standen Copy Share Image
The content of physics is the concern of physicists, its effect the concern of all men. — Friedrich Durrenmatt Copy Share Image
Mediocre theoretical physicists make no progress. They spend all their time understanding other people's progress. — Jeff Bezos Copy Share Image
“Physicists are not used to trimming or compromising their equations in order to get them accepted. Which is why they do not… — Walter Isaacson Copy Share Image
Physicists are more like avant-garde composers, willing to bend traditional rules... Mathematicians are more like classical composers. — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
To some physicists chaos is a science of process rather than state, of becoming rather than being. — James Gleick Copy Share Image
The development of quantum mechanics early in the twentieth century obliged physicists to change radically the concepts they used to describe the… — Alain Aspect Copy Share Image
[Physicists] feel that the field of bacterial viruses is a fine playground for serious children who ask ambitious questions. — Max Delbruck Copy Share Image
Most physicists like myself won't believe the result until every possible caveat has been investigated and/or the result is confirmed elsewhere. — Lisa Randall Copy Share Image
Physicists can only talk to other physicists and economists to economists... sociologists often cannot even understand each other. — Kenneth E. Boulding Copy Share Image
[on what characteristics Nobel prize winning physicists had in common] I cannot think of a single one, not even intelligence. — Enrico Fermi Copy Share Image
The mathematicians of this world regard themselves as 'physicists,' yet they know next to nothing about Physics. — Bill Gaede Copy Share Image
