The electron is a theory we use; it is so useful in understanding the way nature works that we can almost call it real. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“To resolve the discrepancy between waves of probability and our commonsense notion of existence, Bohr and Heisenberg assumed that after a measurement is made… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
Mathematics is not only real, but it is the only reality. That is that entire universe is made of matter, obviously. And matter is… — Martin Gardner Copy Share Image

Unlike mathematical theorems, scientific results can't be proved. They can only be tested again and again, until only a fool would not believe them.… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share Image
Philosophers often think all scientists must be scientific realists. If you ask a simple question like "Are electrons real?" the answer will be "Yes".… — Bas van Fraassen Copy Share Image

In fact, an information theory that leaves out the issue of noise turns out to have no content. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Numbers instill a feeling for the lie of the land, and furnish grist for the mathematical mill that is the physicist's principal tool. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
If the intensity of the material world is plotted along the horizontal axis, and the response of the human mind is on the vertical,… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
This is not what I thought physics was about when I started out: I learned that the idea is to explain nature in terms… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
The problem of defining exactly what is meant by the signal velocity, which cropped up as long ago as 1907, has not been solved. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Both induction and deduction, reasoning from the particular and the general, and back again from the universal to the specific, form the essence to… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
In order to understand information, we must define it; bit in order to define it, we must first understand it. Where to start? — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Yes, Jenna, I love you with all my heart. And with my atoms and molecules and electrons and whatever further breakdown you require. — Sharon Shinn Copy Share Image
Can a physicist visualize an electron? The electron is materially inconceivable and yet, it is so perfectly known through its effects that we use… — Wernher von Braun Copy Share Image

Whether we electrons, light quanta, benzol molecules, or stones, we shall always come up against these two characteristics, the corpuscular and the undular. — Werner Heisenberg Copy Share Image
Not sense data or atoms or electrons or packets of energy, but purposes, interests, and meanings, constitute the underlying facts of human experience. — Lewis Mumford Copy Share Image
