Quantum Space Quotes

#1. The main point is that quantum reality is REALLY, REALLY BIG. We'll build up a toy model that describes social life among the spins of just five particles, and we'll discover that it fills out a space of thirty-two dimensions.

Frank Wilczek

#2. Pet peeves should be kept on a leash.

Daniel Thompson

#3. We are musical notes emanating from the quantum string section of a grand symphonic orchestra.

#4. The quantum is that embarrassing little piece of thread that always hangs from the sweater of space-time. Pull it and the whole thing unravels.

Fred Alan Wolf

#5. Back in my younger years, I read an average of a book a day. That was when I was going to school full time and working a job after school 30 hours or more a week.

James A. Moore

#6. I like relativity and quantum theories because I don't understand them and they make me feel as if space shifted about like a swan that can't settle, refusing to sit still and be measured; and as if the atom were an impulsive thing always changing its mind.

D.H. Lawrence

#7. We have to have a combination of general relativity that describes the warping of space and time, and quantum physics, which describes the uncertainties in that warping and how they change.

Kip Thorne

#8. Tilly was downcast; as with all perfectionists, it was the detail others might not notice that destroyed for her the pleasure of achievement.

Elspeth Huxley

#9. Truth is quantum. It is beyond space and time. Relativity only proves this.

Dean Cavanagh

#10. Where there is no consciousness, there is no time.

Wayne Gerard Trotman

#11. Space can vibrate, space can fluctuate, space can be quantum mechanical, but what the devil is it? And, you know, everybody has their own idea about what it is, but there's no coherent final consensus on why there is space.

Leonard Susskind

#12. I cannot seriously believe in it [quantum theory] because the theory cannot be reconciled with the idea that physics should represent a reality in time and space, free from spooky actions at a distance [spukhafte Fernwirkungen].

Albert Einstein

#13. Reality has been around since long before you showed up. Don't go calling it nasty names like 'bizarre' or 'incredible'. The universe was propagating complex amplitudes through configuration space for ten billion years before life ever emerged on Earth. Quantum physics is not 'weird'. You are weird.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

#14. No one is completely worthless, for they can always serve as a horrible example. LM

Lee McLaughlin

#15. DNA is a quantum computer that localizes a non local omnipresent consciousness or spirit into space time energy information and matter.

Deepak Chopra

#16. They say that faint heart never won fair lady. It is amazing to me how fair ladies are won, so faint are often men's hearts!

Anthony Trollope

#17. They all occupied the same space but did not occupy it together. Imagine a thousand leaves of tracing paper, each with one person lightly pencilled on it, all stacked atop a scene of a frozen city block. A thousand discreet and solitary realities that appear to be occurring in the same location.

Doug Dorst

#18. Quantum physics has found that there is no empty space in the human cell, but it is a teeming, electric-magnet ic field of possibility or potential

Deepak Chopra

#19. According to inflation, the more than 100 billion galaxies, sparkling throughout space like heavenly diamonds, are nothing but quantum mechanics writ large across the sky. To me, this realization is one of the greatest wonders of the modern scientific age.

Brian Greene

#20. You have to say now that space is something. Space can vibrate, space can fluctuate, space can be quantum mechanical, but what the devil is it?

Leonard Susskind

#21. Seriously, honey," I said. "Your manners are appalling. Go fuck yourself.

Kylie Scott

#22. Einstein comes along and says, space and time can warp and curve, that's what gravity is. Now string theory comes along and says, yes, gravity, quantum mechanics, electromagnetism - all together in one package, but only if the universe has more dimensions than the ones that we see.

Brian Greene

#23. The world of the everyday suddenly seemed nothing but an inverted magic act, lulling its audience into believing in the usual, familiar conceptions of space and time, while the astonishing truth of quantum reality lay carefully guarded by nature's sleights of hand.

Brian Greene

#24. It is likely that space as we know it ceases to exist and is replaced by some form of chaotic quantum 'foam', where gravity plays a new role in fashioning the forms of energy that can exist.

Anonymous

#25. I always have hard-boiled eggs with me to eat egg whites for protein. Even when I travel, I bring eggs with me so I don't eat the plane food. Yes, I'm the person you do not want to sit next to with hard-boiled eggs.

Marissa Jaret Winokur

#26. the particles are quanta of quantum fields; light is formed by quanta of a field; space is nothing more than a field, which is also made of quanta; and time emerges from the processes of this same field. In other words, the world is made entirely from quantum fields (

Carlo Rovelli

#27. Everything I do now
Was once an unremembered dream.
-Spoken by Dr. Perry after return from the chrysalis

Don Murphy

#28. The whiskey was going down sweet. That was what happened after a while, with no meal to assist - it had to do the food work on its own.
"There. We talked about death."
"That's talking about death?

Lorrie Moore

#29. But define 'completely ridiculous shit,'" Duvall said. "Does space travel count? Contact with alien races? Does quantum physics count? Because I don't understand that crap at all. As far as I'm concerned, quantum physics could have been written by a hack.

John Scalzi

#30. Quantum phenomena do not occur in a Hilbert space. They occur in a laboratory.

Asher Peres

#31. Took your car, drove to Texas. Sorry honey, but I suspected, you and I can't cry anymore.

Sheryl Crow

#32. Life is a field of cosmic consciousness, expressing itself in million ways in space-time through quantum entanglement

Amit Ray

#33. Consciousness is very personal like happiness, sadness, or awareness. You can only feel it and you cannot see it. It does not follow any quantum rules. It has no weight or dimension and does not occupy any space. Consciousness has no beginning and no end.

Debasish Mridha

#34. Me neither," Shane put in. "Homie don't play that."
