Quantum Theory Quotes

Quantum Theory Quote of the day

Quantum theory also tells us that the world is not simply objective; somehow it's something more subtle than that. In some sense it is veiled from us, but it has a structure that we can understand.

If [quantum theory] is correct, it signifies the end of physics as a science.

Niels Bohr brainwashed a whole generation of theorists into thinking that the job (interpreting quantum theory) was done 50 years ago.

God runs electromagnetics by wave theory on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and the Devil runs them by quantum theory on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

There's far more truth in the Book of Genesis than in the quantum theory.

You have nothing to do but mention the quantum theory, and people will take your voice for the voice of science, and belive anything.

If all this damned quantum jumping were really here to stay, I should be sorry, I should be sorry I ever got involved with quantum theory.

When you look at a vacuum in a quantum theory of fields, it isn't exactly nothing.

You know that, according to quantum theory, if two particles collide with enough energy you can, in principle, with an infinitesimal probability, produce two grand pianos.

Quantum theory was split up into dialects. Different people describe the same experiences in remarkably different languages. This is confusing even to physicists.

For the most part, quantum theory has been of little practical value in my life.

Classical physics has been superseded by quantum theory: quantum theory is verified by experiments. Experiments must be described in terms of classical physics.

Quantum field theory arose out of our need to describe the ephemeral nature of life.

If we are going t stick to this damned quantum-jumping, then I regret that I ever had anything to do with quantum theory.

I read a lot of science books - I love cosmology, quantum theory, particle physics. So my idea of a great read would probably put you directly into a coma.

Physical reality does not require that we be pleased with its mechanism.

There are many, many, many worlds branching out at each moment you become aware of your environment and then make a choice.

All perception is the result of electrical impulses in the brain - the world of the individual is tantamount to a highly advanced computer running and analyzing programs in its working memory.
