If all this damned quantum jumping were really here to stay, I should be sorry, I should be sorry I ever got… — Erwin Schrodinger Copy Share Image
Physics is really figuring out how to discover new things that are counterintuitive, like quantum mechanics. It's really counterintuitive. — Elon Musk Copy Share Image
The birth of science as we know it arguably began with Isaac Newton's formulation of the laws of gravitation and motion. It… — Paul Davies Copy Share Image

The movement of a single atom from one known position to another known position changes an experience from nothing to overwhelming. This… — Terence McKenna Copy Share Image
A gifted experimentalist, and theoretician, in the best Newtonian tradition... His contributions to quantum measurements, and elucidative teachings on quantum mechanics, have… — Willis Lamb Copy Share Image
“Can you half believe something? No, that wasn't quite right. This was quantum mechanics. The better question: can you both believe in… — Ted Kosmatka Copy Share Image
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
If you have nothing in quantum mechanics, you will always have something. — Lawrence M. Krauss Copy Share Image
