The more success the quantum theory has, the sillier it looks

I am a Quantum Engineer, but on Sundays I Have Principles.

From this new point of view, the universe I had inhabited became an object I could perceive in its entirety. It was a hypersphere embedded in a cloud of alternative states - the sum of all possible quantum trajectories from the big bang to the decay of matter. "Reality" - history as we had known or inferred it - was only the most likely of these possible trajectories. There were countless others, real in a different sense: a vast but finite set of paths not taken, a ghostly forest of quantum alternatives, the shores of an unknown sea.

Entanglement is not one but rather the characteristic trait of quantum mechanics.

No one really understands quantum mechanics.

Quantum entanglement allows you to send information faster than light, which upset Einstein. But Einstein has the last laugh. The information you send on quantum entanglement is random, useless information. So Einsein still has the last laugh.

We are the product of quantum fluctuations in the very early universe.

Surrender is the quantum leap from mind to no-mind, from ego to egolessness. And in a single step the whole journey is contained. It is not a long journey from you to God, it is a single-step journey. It is not a gradual phenomenon; it is not that slowly slowly, gradually you come to the divine. It is a quantum leap! One moment you were in darkness and the next moment all is light. All that is needed is to put the ego aside.

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

Anybody who is not shocked by this subject has failed to understand it. [of quantum mechanics]

If you have nothing in quantum mechanics, you will always have something.

The quantum entered physics with a jolt. It didn't fit anywhere; it made no sense; it contradicted everything we thought we knew about nature. Yet the data seemed to demand it. ... The story of Werner Heisenberg and his science is the story of the desperate failures and ultimate triumphs of the small band of brilliant physicists who-during an incredibly intense period of struggle with the data, the theories, and each other during the 1920s-brought about a revolutionary new understanding of the atomic world known as quantum mechanics.

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

We are analog beings living in a digital world, facing a quantum future.

Doing is a quantum leap from imagining.

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

What're quantum mechanics?" "I don't know. People who repair quantums, I suppose.

I've always been fascinated by quantum physics and the possibility of alternate realities.

I wish I could go out farther from my musical history. I didn't realize how hard it was until I tried to do it. All the basic tracks on Romanian Names were done in my basement, alone, without any of the self-consciousness that comes with being in the studio. It was a completely different process. And those two things definitely made the record sound different. But you want this quantum leap from record to record, and maybe if I did make a quantum leap I'd make an unlistenable album. So maybe I'm lucky that I can't pull it off.

Quantum entanglement is a very intriguing issue, but it is not impossible.

Quantum est in rebus inane! How much folly there is in human affairs.

I read a lot of astronomy magazines, and go to a lot of astronomy sites, and physics sites. I love reading about quantum computation and quantum physics. I don't understand it all, but I love reading it over and over again so that I think I have some idea of what they're talking about.

If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don't understand quantum mechanics.

Quantum mechanics, that brilliantly successful flagship theory of modern science, is deeply mysterious and hard to understand. Eastern mystics have always been deeply mysterious and hard to understand. Therefore, Eastern mystics must have been talking about quantum theory all along.

String theory is the most developed theory with the capacity to unite general relativity and quantum mechanics in a consistent manner. I do believe the universe is consistent, and therefore I do believe that general relativity and quantum mechanics should be put together in a manner that makes sense.

When I was a kid, 'Quantum Leap' was one of my favorite TV shows.

I'm fascinated with quantum physics.

We call our intuition our sixth sense, but in reality it would be called our first sense, because it's rooted in quantum nature of reality. It was around long before our solar system and our planetary system were even formulated or even organized. It is at the basis of how our normal sensing works. So instead of being our sixth sense or even â€" using the parapsychological term â€" "extrasensory perception," it's not. It's at the basis of our perception, and that's the quantum world.

Quantum mechanics, with its leap into statistics, has been a mere palliative for our ignorance

I am fascinated by quantum physics.

In a quantum universe, magic is not the exception but the rule.

The so-called mysteries of quantum mechanics are in its philosophical interpretation, not in its mathematics.

Anyone not shocked by quantum mechanics has not yet understood it.

If quantum mechanics hasn't profoundly shocked you, you haven't understood it yet.

I make figurative portraits as a way to explore theories of quantum physics.

Quantum mechanics has explained all of chemistry and most of physics.

I think we can safely assume that no one understands quantum mechanics.

I'm a person who's very interested in science and the universe and quantum physics and astrophysics.

The quality and quantum of potential investors in Africa is huge.

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

I remember watching 'Quantum Leap' when I was a kid with my family, so I think that's fun and nostalgic.

Anyone who can contemplate quantum mechanics without getting dizzy hasn't understood it.

You've heard me talk about the quantum realm in Ant-Man which was certainly designed for that movie and for that story to take the notion of somebody who has the ability to shrink to another level we've never seen before, but as we were doing that, and studying it and talking to the science advisors who are always more than willing to spend an afternoon with us and talk about these amazing things - the quantum realm is another dimension.

If everything is made up of little particles and all the little particles follow quantum mechanics, then shouldn't everything just follow quantum mechanics?

I favour an interpretation of quantum mechanics (the 'Everett interpretation') according to which reality branches in any chancy quantum situation. On this view, Schrödinger's set-up will give rise to in two future branches of reality, one with a live cat, and one with a dead cat - and the talk of '50% chances' just indicates that the two branches are both equally real futures of the cat that originally entered the box.

If you aren't confused by quantum mechanics, you haven't really understood it.

The quest for a quantum gravity is one of the greatest unsolved problems in all of science.

Unconsciously transmitting ideas to the other MC way back when............,,,..#quantum

The particular, eternally persisting, elementary physical stuff of the world, according to the standard presentations of relativistic quantum field theories, consists (unsurprisingly) of relativistic quantum fields... They have nothing whatsoever to say on the subject of where those fields came from, or of why the world should have consisted of the particular kinds of fields it does, or of why it should have consisted of fields at all, or of why there should have been a world in the first place. Period. Case closed. End of story.

Quantum physics shows us the universe as a dynamic web of connection.

The act of observing a quantum event probabalistically influences its outcome.

Nature is one. It is not divided into physics, chemistry, quantum mechanics.

Quantum mechanics makes absolutely no sense.

As an artist, there's a sweet, jump-starting quality to [marijuana] for me. I've often felt telepathic and receptive to inexplicable messages my whole life. I can stave those off when I'm not high. When I'm high - well, they come in and there's less of a veil, so to speak. So if ever I need some clarity, or a quantum leap in my own consciousness, or a quantum leap in terms of writing something or getting an answer, it's a quick way for me to get it.

As an adult I discovered that I was a pretty good autodidact, and can teach myself all kind of things. And developed a great interest in a number of different things from how to build a street hot rod from the ground up to quantum mechanics, and those two different kinds of mechanics, and it was really in the sciences, quantum mechanics, molecular biology, I would begin looking at these things looking for ideas, but in fact you don't read it for ideas you read it for curiosity and interest in the subject.
