Among the lesser effects of quantum theory are gaping holes in old ideas about causality. — Ian Hacking Copy Share Image
The downside was that for 400 years, science has grown up, has arisen and developed as a purely materialist concept and avoided… — Edgar Mitchell Copy Share Image
'Quantum Conundrum' is a direct reflection, not just of me, but of our entire team. It has a little bit of all… — Kim Swift Copy Share Image
An entirely honest man, in the severe sense of the word, exists no more than an entirely dishonest knave: the best and… — Johann Kaspar Lavater Copy Share Image
Quantum mechanics brought an unexpected fuzziness into physics because of quantum uncertainty, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. String theory does so again because… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
Isn't it true that whatever isn't determined by our genes must be determined by our environment? What else is there? There's Nature… — Anonymous Copy Share Image
Bells theorem dealt a shattering blow to Einsteins position by showing that the conception of reality as consisting of separate parts, joined… — Fritjof Capra Copy Share Image

With the exception of gravitation and radioactivity, all of the phenomena known to physicists and chemists in 1911 have their ultimate explanation… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The so-called mysteries of quantum mechanics are in its philosophical interpretation, not in its mathematics. — Victor J. Stenger Copy Share Image
Similarly, another famous little quantum fluctuation that programs you is the exact configuration of your DNA. — Seth Lloyd Copy Share Image
It has been said that the three great develpments in twentieth century science are relativity, quantum mechanics, and chaos. That strikes me… — Robert L. Devaney Copy Share Image

There was a long history of speculation that in quantum gravity, unlike Einstein's classical theory, it might be possible for the topology… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
“Unlike classical certainty, quantum systems describe likelihoods, not fixed outcomes.” — Ludmila Morozova-Buss Copy Share Image
All the quantum physics experiments have occurred chiefly on the atomic scale and we are taught to believe that nature's laws are… — Mitch Horowitz Copy Share Image
Renormalization is just a stop-gap procedure. There must be some fundamental change in our ideas, probably a change just as fundamental as… — Paul Dirac Copy Share Image
