Quantum Mechanics Quotes (Educational) Poem by Spock the Vegan

J. B. S. Haldane said 'The universe is not only
queerer than we suppose, it is queerer than we
can suppose.' In this context, queer means strange.

'There was a time when the newspapers said that
only twelve men understood the theory of relativity.
I do not believe that there ever was such a time.
There might have been a time when only one man
did, because he was the only guy who caught on,
before he wrote his paper. But after people read
the paper a lot of people understood the theory
of relativity in some way or other, certainly more
than twelve. On the other hand, I think I can safely
say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.'
- Richard Feynman,1965

'Those who are not shocked when they first come
across quantum theory cannot possibly have
understood it.' - Niels Bohr.

'If you are not completely confused by quantum
mechanics, you do not understand it.' - John Wheeler.

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

'I do not like [quantum mechanics], and I am sorry I ever
had anything to do with it.' - Erwin Schrödinger.

'As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality,
they are not certain; and as far as they are certain,
they do not refer to reality.' ― Albert Einstein

'So Einstein was wrong when he said, ‘God does
not play dice.' Consideration of black holes suggests,
not only that God does play dice, but that he sometimes
confuses us by throwing them where they can't be seen.'
― Stephen Hawking

'Theology, philosophy, metaphysics, and quantum
physics are merely ways for God to have his smart
people believe in him' ― Jeremy Aldana

'In the world of the very small, where particle
and wave aspects of reality are equally significant,
things do not behave in any way that we can
understand from our experience of the everyday
world...all pictures are false, and there is no physical
analogy we can make to understand what goes on
inside atoms. Atoms behave like atoms, nothing else.'
― John Gribbin, In Search of Schrödinger's Cat: Quantum Physics and Reality


'Quantum physics findings show that consciousness itself
created order - or indeed in some way created the world…'
― Lynne McTaggart, The Field: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe
