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.
Werner HeisenbergA consistent pursuit of classical physics forces a transformation in the very heart of that physics.
Werner HeisenbergI think that the discovery of antimatter was perhaps the biggest jump of all the big jumps in physics in our century.
Werner HeisenbergThe existing scientific concepts cover always only a very limited part of reality, and the other part that has not yet been understood is infinite.
Werner HeisenbergIt 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. These lines may have their roots in quite different parts of human nature, in different times or different cultural environments or different religious traditions: hence if they actually meet, that is, if they are at least so much related to each other that a real interaction can take place, then one may hope that new and interesting developments may follow.
