Science clears the fields on which technology can build.

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.

Thus, the more precisely the position is determined, the less precisely the momentum is known, and conversely.

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.

The ontology of materialism rested upon the illusion that the kind of existence, the direct "actuality" of the world around us, can be extrapolated into the atomic range. This extrapolation is impossible, however.

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

What we observe is not nature itself, but nature exposed to our method of questioning.
