The very act of observing disturbs the system.

The incomplete knowledge of a system must be an essential part of every formulation in quantum theory. Quantum theoretical laws must be of a statistical kind. To give an example: we know that the radium atom emits alpha-radiation. Quantum theory can give us an indication of the probability that the alpha-particle will leave the nucleus in unit time, but it cannot predict at what precise point in time the emission will occur, for this is uncertain in principle.

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

When I meet God, I am going to ask him two questions: Why relativity ? And why turbulence ? I really believe he will have an answer for the first.

It is probably true quite generally that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful developments frequently take place at those points where two different lines of thought meet.

...separation of the observer from the phenomenon to be observed is no longer possible.

The Same organizing forces that have shaped nature in all her forms are also responsible for the structure of our minds.
