There are a lot of good things about string theory, and it's great that some people want to work on it. — Antony Garrett Lisi Copy Share Image
Time travel and teleportation will have to wait. It may take centuries to master these technology. But within the coming decades, we… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
“Banishing zero also solves the infinity problems in general relativity. If you imagine a black hole as a string, no longer do… — Charles Seife Copy Share Image
String theory?[pause] It closed the conceptual gulp between relativity and quantum mechanics. It postulates that subatomic particles are not points, but strings,… — Willie Garson Copy Share Image
“The subject of this chapter is string theory, and I begin it with these reflections for two reasons. First, because the main… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
Just like an ordinary guitar string, a fundamental string can vibrate in different modes. And it is these different modes of vibration… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
The beauty of science is to imagine more than we can prove. And string theory gives you a radically different interpretation of… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
Your humble correspondent realizes that many readers are left-wing, anti-string-theory fighters. So they probably smoke marijuana and this is my modest attempt… — Lubos Motl Copy Share Image
When we understand string theory, we will know how the universe began. It won't have much effect on how we live, but… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
“So one might say that music killed him, that he was felled by music. It's a theory. String theory.” — Emma Richler Copy Share Image
I do feel strongly that string theory is our best hope for making progress at unifying gravity and quantum mechanics. — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
Technically you need the extra dimensions. At first people didn't like them too much, but they've got a big benefit, which is… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
In life, people tend to wait for good things to come to them. And by waiting, they miss out. Usually, what you… — Neil Strauss Copy Share Image
One of the main successes of string theory is that it has been able to unify the general theory of relativity, which… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
I had two passions when I was a child. First was to learn about Einstein's theory and help to complete his dream… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
“Basically, string theory is the development of this visionary idea in a context of a fixed background of space and time. Loop… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
Modern thinking is that time did not start with the big bang, and that there was a multiverse even before the big… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
Combining quantum entanglement with wormholes yields mind boggling results about black holes. But I don't trust them until we have a theory… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
Once again, my colleague Stephen Hawking has upset the apple cart. The event horizon surrounding a black hole was once though to… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
“Louis and I worked on two projects. In the first we tried to formulate a gravitational theory based on the dynamics of… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
“Lecter sits in his armchair with a big pad of butcher paper doing calculations. The pages are filled with the symbols both… — Thomas Harris Copy Share Image
The most important single thing about string theory is that it's a highly mathematical theory, and the mathematics holds together in a… — Leonard Susskind Copy Share Image
“The universe as a giant harpstring, oscillating in and out of existence! What note does it play, by the way? Passages from… — Ursula K. Le Guin Copy Share Image
When you look at the calculation, it's amazing that every time you try to prove or disprove time travel, you've pushed Einstein's… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
