Entropy Quotes

The fundamental laws of the universe which correspond to the two fundamental theorems of the mechanical theory of heat.1. The energy of the universe is constant.2. The entropy of the universe tends to a maximum Picture Quote #1

One thinks one’s something unique and wonderful at the center of the universe, when in fact one’s just a slight interruption in the ongoing march of entropy Picture Quote #1

Just as entropy is a measure of disorganization, the information carried by a set of messages is a measure of organization. In fact, it is possible to interpret the information carried by a message as essentially the negative of its entropy, and the negative logarithm of its probability. That is, the more probable the message, the less information it gives. Cliches, for example, are less illuminating than great poems Picture Quote #1

The slurbs, urban sprawl, and the infinite number, of housing developments of the postwar boom have contributed to the architecture of entropy Picture Quote #1

So far as physics is concerned, time’s arrow is a property of entropy alone Picture Quote #1

What’s important is how we use our time on this earth, not how conspicuously we give our money away. What’s important is the energy and courage we are willing to expend reversing entropy, battling cynicism, suffering and challenging mediocre minds, staring down those who would trample our dreams, taking a stand for magic, and advancing the potential of the human race Picture Quote #1

Now the work of art also represents a state of final equilibrium, of accomplished order and maximum relative entropy, and there are those who resent it. But art is not meant to stop the stream of life. Within a narrow span of duration and space the work of art concentrates a view of the human condition; and sometimes it marks the steps of progression, just as a man climbing the dark stairs of a medieval tower assures himself by the changing sights glimpsed through its narrow windows that he is getting somewhere after all Picture Quote #1

Only lifeless mechanisms move along faultlessly straight lines and compass circles. In art the surest way to destroy is to canonize one given form and one philosophy: that which is canonized quickly dies of obesity, of entropy Picture Quote #1

The entropy of an isolated system not in equilibrium will tend to increase over time, approaching a maximum value at equilibrium Picture Quote #1

You are the cutting edge of a thirteen billion year old process of defining novelty. Your acts matter. Your thoughts matter. Your purpose? To add to the complexity. Your enemy? Disorder, entropy, stupidity, and tastelessness Picture Quote #1

In the face of entropy and nothingness, you kind of have to pretend it’s not there if you want to keep writing good code Picture Quote #1

We form cities in order to enhance interaction, to facilitate growth, wealth creation, ideas, innovation, but in so doing, we create, from a physicists viewpoint, entropy Picture Quote #1

There are foods that accelerate aging and entropy, and others that renew and revitalise the body Picture Quote #1

Instead of focusing on the work, you focus on the entropy and the chaos and you get a byproduct Picture Quote #1

You should never be surprised by or feel the need to explain why any physical system is in a high entropy state Picture Quote #1

Chaos was the natural law of the universe. Indifference was the engine of entropy. Man’s apathy was the fertile ground in which the dark spirits tended their seeds Picture Quote #1

The increase of disorder or entropy is what distinguishes the past from the future, giving a direction to time Picture Quote #1
