Complexity Quote by Jeff VanderMeer

When we cannot look around and explain anything we are the quantum world.

— Akiane Kramarik

“We've surpassed ourselves now, we're exploring terrain beyond the limits of merely human understanding. Sometimes its contours, even in conventional space, are just too…

— Peter Watts

Our brains are too slow to register that every concrete object is winking in and out of existence at the quantum level thousands of…

— Deepak Chopra

Nature isn't classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you'd better make it quantum mechanical, and by golly it's…

— Richard P. Feynman

Quantum mechanics is so counter-intuitive, physicists have never been able to come up with a comfortable picture of how it works.

— Taner Edis

People get a lot of confusion, because they keep trying to think of quantum mechanics as classical mechanics.

— Sidney Coleman

Trying to capture the physicists' precise mathematical description of the quantum world with our crude words and mental images is like playing Chopin with…

— George Johnson

Quantum physics is one of the hardest things to understand intuitively, because essentially the whole point is that our classical picture is wrong,

— Neil Turok

The feature of living matter that most demands explanation is that it is almost unimaginably complicated in directions that convey a powerful illusion of…

— Richard Dawkins

Trying to understand the way nature works involves a most terrible test of human reasoning ability. It involves subtle trickery, beautiful tightropes of logic…

— Richard P. Feynman

Everything, however complicated - breaking waves, migrating birds, and tropical forests - is made of atoms and obeys the equations of quantum physics. But…

— Martin Rees

The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works. And it tells us our reality is continually branching into different possibilities,…
