I count Maxwell and Einstein, Eddington and Dirac, among "real" mathematicians. The great modern achievements of applied mathematics have been in relativity and quantum mechanics,… — G. H. Hardy
Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity are both accepted as scientific fact even though they're mutually exclusive. Albert Einstein spent the second half of his life… — Roy H. Williams
Quantum mechanics makes absolutely no sense. — Roger Penrose
It has been said that the three great develpments in twentieth century science are relativity, quantum mechanics, and chaos. That strikes me the same as… — Robert L. Devaney
Should a priest reject relativity because it contains no authoritative exposition on the doctrine of the Trinity? Once you realize that the Bible does not… — Georges Lemaitre
You have to say now that space is something. Space can vibrate, space can fluctuate, space can be quantum mechanical, but what the devil is… — Leonard Susskind
The scientists often have more unfettered imaginations than current philosophers do. Relativity theory came as a complete surprise to philosophers, and so did quantum mechanics,… — Robert Nozick
There's a lot of things I nerd out over. Quantum Mechanics. I also love Dungeons and Dragons. I want to be an astronaut. — Analeigh Tipton
In the future, maybe quantum mechanics will teach us something equally chilling about exactly how we exist from moment to moment of what we like… — Richard K. Morgan
If I say [electrons] behave like particles I give the wrong impression; also if I say they behave like waves. They behave in their own… — Richard P. Feynman
...contemporary physicists come in two varieties. Type 1 physicists are bothered by EPR and Bell's Theorem. Type 2 (the majority) are not, but one has… — David Mermin
Bell's theorem...proves that quantum theory requires connections that appear to resemble telepathic communication. — Gary Zukav
...the physicist cannot simply surrender to the philosopher the critical contemplation of the theoretical foundations; for, he himself knows best, and feels more surely where… — Albert Einstein
...physics is the study of the structure of consciousness. — Gary Zukav
Our intellect does not draw its laws from nature, but it imposes its laws upon nature. — Immanuel Kant
But some of these theories are so bold that they can clash with reality: they are the testable theories of science. And when they clash,… — Karl Popper
Unless a thing can be defined by measurement, it has no place in a theory. And since an accurate value of the momentum of a… — Richard P. Feynman
Is the world ruled by strict laws or not? This question I regard as metaphysical. The laws we find are always hypotheses; which means that… — Karl Popper
The discontinuous 'reduction of the wave packets' which cannot be derived from Schroedinger's equation is ... a consequence of the transition from the possible to… — Werner Heisenberg
But it is certainly not possible to insist on one hand that the formalism is complete and to insist on the other hand that its… — Karl Popper
