Quantum Quotes

It seems sensible to discard all hope of observing hitherto unobservable quantities, such as the position and period of the electron... Instead it seems more reasonable to try to establish a theoretical quantum mechanics, analogous to classical mechanics, but in which only relations between observable quantities occur Picture Quote #1

What really matters for me is... the more active role of the observer in quantum physics... According to quantum physics the observer has indeed a new relation to the physical events around him in comparison with the classical observer, who is merely a spectator Picture Quote #1

When the province of physical theory was extended to encompass microscopic phenomena through the creation of quantum mechanics, the concept of consciousness came to the fore again. It was not possible to formulate the laws of quantum mechanics in a fully consistent way without reference to the consciousness Picture Quote #1

Now I existed solely thanks to the quantum paradox, my brain a collection of qubits in quantum superposition, encoding truths and memories, imagination and irrationality in opposing, contradictory states that existed and didn’t exist, all at the same time Picture Quote #1

The underlying physical laws necessary for the mathematical theory of a large part of physics and the whole of chemistry are thus completely known, and the difficulty is only that the exact application of these laws leads to equations much too complicated to be soluble. It therefore becomes desirable that approximate practical methods of applying quantum mechanics should be developed, which can lead to an explanation of the main features of complex atomic systems without too much computation Picture Quote #1

This act is as horrible as killing a cancer cell. It must be done for the sake of the future of the whole. So be it: be prepared for the selection process which is now beginning. We, the elders, have been patiently waiting until the very last moment before the quantum transformation, to take action to cut out this corrupted and corrupting element in the body of humanity. It is like watching a cancer grow; something must be done before the whole body is destroyed... The destructive one fourth must be eliminated from the social body Picture Quote #1

The history of the universe is, in effect, a huge and ongoing quantum computation. The universe is a quantum computer Picture Quote #1

By far the most important consequence of the conceptual revolution brought about in physics by relativity and quantum theory lies not in such details as that meter sticks shorten when they move or that simultaneous position and momentum have no meaning, but in the insight that we had not been using our minds properly and that it is important to find out how to do so Picture Quote #1

And anyone who thinks they can talk about quantum theory without feeling dizzy hasn’t yet understood the first thing about it Picture Quote #1

The revolution which began with the creation of quantum theory and relativity theory can only be finished with their unification into a single theory that can give us a single, comprehensive picture of nature Picture Quote #1

Courageous dreaming allows you to create from the source, the quantum soup of the universe where everything exists in a latent or potential state Picture Quote #1

The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works. And it tells us our reality is continually branching into different possibilities, just like a coral Picture Quote #1

Everything that can happen, does. That’s quantum mechanics. But this does not mean everything happens. The rest of physics is about describing what can happen and what can’t Picture Quote #1

A person who wasn’t outraged on first hearing about quantum theory didn’t understand what had been said Picture Quote #1

Each quantum event, each of the trillions of times reality’s particles interact with each other every instant, is like a note that rings and resonates throughout the great bell of creation. And the sound of the ringing propagates instantaneously, everywhere at once, interconnecting all things. This is a truth of our universe. It is a mystical truth, that reality at its deepest level is an undivided wholeness Picture Quote #1

If we, on our most fundamental level, are packets of quantum energy constantly exchanging information with this heaving energy sea, it means that all of us connect with each other and the world at the level of the very undercoat of our being. It also means that we have the power to access much more information about the world than we realize Picture Quote #1

After 12 years in the minor leagues, I don’t try out. Besides, uh, I don’t believe in quantum physics when it comes to matters of the heart Picture Quote #1

Learning from the successes and failures of others is key to making quantum leaps toward our goals Picture Quote #1

There is a responsibility on all companies to look at the quantum of pay and the relationship between the top and the bottom Picture Quote #1

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? Picture Quote #1

Quantum physics is one of the hardest things to understand intuitively, because essentially the whole point is that our classical picture is wrong Picture Quote #1

Whether you can go back in time is held in the grip of the law of quantum gravity. We are several decades away from a definitive understanding, 20 or 30 years, but it could be sooner than that Picture Quote #1

I actually think that bass is probably the instrument that has evolved in a quantum leap compared to other instruments. It’s the instrument that’s evolved the most, especially with how it’s perceived. And even how it’s played, and how it’s viewed from a point of view of commerce, like with the music industry Picture Quote #1

To me quantum computation is a new and deeper and better way to understand the laws of physics, and hence understanding physical reality as a whole Picture Quote #1

The most important application of quantum computing in the future is likely to be a computer simulation of quantum systems, because that’s an application where we know for sure that quantum systems in general cannot be efficiently simulated on a classical computer Picture Quote #1

Quantum physics is a bit of a passion of mine. It’s extraordinary. There’s a branch of mathematics that is based on lunacy, and that’s wonderful Picture Quote #1

For many years quantum physics had been giving indications that there are levels of reality other than the material level Picture Quote #1

The quantum hypothesis will eventually find its exact expression in certain equations which will be a more exact formulation of the law of causality Picture Quote #1

Quantum physics is the physics of possibilities. And not just material possibilities, but also possibilities of meaning, of feeling, and of intuiting. You choose everything you experience from these possibilities, so quantum physics is a way of understanding your life as one long series of choices that are in themselves the ultimate acts of creativity Picture Quote #1

Bell’s theorem...proves that quantum theory requires connections that appear to resemble telepathic communication Picture Quote #1
