Quantum mechanics is confusing and consciousness is confusing, so maybe they're the same. — Scott Aaronson Copy Share Image
It is a curious historical fact that modern quantum mechanics began with two quite different mathematical formulations: the differential equation of Schroedinger… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
People don't learn science in movies. You don't go to the movies thinking, 'I hope I learn some quantum mechanics this afternoon.'… — Seth Shostak Copy Share Image
Unless a thing can be defined by measurement, it has no place in a theory. And since an accurate value of the… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“We are not talking about waves or particles, what we are talking about is a quantum of action in a field. This… — Rick Delmonico Copy Share Image

Quantum mechanics broke the mold of the previous framework, classical mechanics, by establishing that the predictions of science are necessarily probabilistic. — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works. And it tells us our reality is continually branching into… — Antony Garrett Lisi Copy Share Image
