Readers probably haven't heard much about it yet, but they will. Quantum technology turns ordinary reality upside down. — Michael Crichton
The birth of science as we know it arguably began with Isaac Newton's formulation of the laws of gravitation and motion. It is no exaggeration… — Paul Davies
Quantum computation is... a distinctively new way of harnessing nature... It will be the first technology that allows useful tasks to be performed in collaboration… — David Deutsch
Everybody recognizes that if you can make very efficient electric motors, you can make a quantum leap forward. — James Dyson
Life is strong and fragile. It's a paradox... It's both things, like quantum physics: It's a particle and a wave at the same time. It… — Joan Jett
It is often stated that of all the theories proposed in this century, the silliest is quantum theory. In fact, some say that the only… — Michio Kaku
For the record: Quantum mechanics does not deny the existence of objective reality. Nor does it imply that mere thoughts can change external events. Effects… — Lawrence M. Krauss
If you start any large theory, such as quantum mechanics, plate tectonics, evolution, it takes about 40 years for mainstream science to come around. Gaia… — James Lovelock
If someone says that he can think or talk about quantum physics without becoming dizzy, that shows only that he has not understood anything whatever… — Murray Gell-Mann
If we look at the way the universe behaves, quantum mechanics gives us fundamental, unavoidable indeterminacy, so that alternative histories of the universe can be… — Murray Gell-Mann

Ultimately, my Ph.D. is in mathematical physics, focusing on quantum field theory and curved space-time, and I worked with Stephen Hawking. — Nathan Myhrvold
Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe. — Erwin Schrodinger
The mathematical framework of quantum theory has passed countless successful tests and is now universally accepted as a consistent and accurate description of all atomic… — Erwin Schrodinger
The verbal interpretation, on the other hand, i.e. the metaphysics of quantum physics, is on far less solid ground. In fact, in more than forty… — Erwin Schrodinger
The possibilities that are suggested in quantum physics tell us that everything that we're looking at may not be in fact there, so the underlying… — William Shatner
Practically and commercially speaking, a dollar is not necessarily a specific thing, made of silver, or gold, or any other single metal, or substance. It… — Lysander Spooner
An external electric field, meeting it and passing through it, affects the negative as much as the positive quanta of the atom, and pushes the… — Johannes Stark
