The basic idea is to shove all fundamental difficulties onto the neutron and to do quantum mechanics in the nucleus.

Not only is the Universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can think.

The reality we can put into words is never reality itself.

It was about three o'clock at night when the final result of the calculation [which gave birth to quantum mechanics] lay before me ... At first I was deeply shaken ... I was so excited that I could not think of sleep. So I left the house ... and awaited the sunrise on top of a rock.

Quantum theory provides us with a striking illustration of the fact that we can fully understand a connection though we can only speak of it in images and parables.

Whenever we proceed from the known to the unkown we may hope to understand, but we may have to learn at the same time a new meaning of the word 'understanding'

The more closely you look at one thing, the less closely can you see something else.
