I think that the discovery of antimatter was perhaps the biggest jump of all the big jumps in physics in our century.

An expert is someone who knows some of the worst mistakes that can be made in his subject and how to avoid them.

My mind was formed by studying philosophy, Plato and that sort of thing.

Nature is made in such a way as to be able to be understood. Or perhaps I should put it-more correctly-the other way around, and say that we are made in such a way as to be able to understand Nature.

The exact sciences also start from the assumption that in the end it will always be possible to understand nature, even in every new field of experience, but that we may make no a priori assumptions about the meaning of the word understand.

The world thus appears as a complicated tissue of events, in which connections of different kinds alternate or overlap or combine and thereby determine the texture of the whole.

Science clears the fields on which technology can build.
