Physics Quotes - Page 10

String theory is 21 st century physics that fell accidentally into the 20th century.

The basic science is not physics or mathematics but biology -- the study of life. We must learn to think both logically and bio-logically.

It's starting to catch hold, and in large measure it's because we're starting to understand that much of what we have talked about in ancient mythology and mystical experience and so forth can pretty well be modeled within the world of quantum physics. That's a 20th century phenomenon also.

Physics is much too hard for physicists.

If it weren’t for physics and law enforcement, I’d be unstoppable.

I was always good at math and science and physics.

When I give this talk to a physics audience, I remove the quotes from my 'Theorem'.

Quantum physics is a bit of a passion of mine. It's extraordinary. There's a branch of mathematics that is based on lunacy, and that's wonderful.

Physics is a hobby of mine, as much as a person of limited intelligence can understand physics.

There are very few things that can be proved rigorously in condensed matter physics.

No science can be more secure than the unconscious metaphysics which tacitly it presupposes.

Politics is far more complicated than physics.

The terrifying physics of going up-mast in heavy seas are inescapable.

Geometry is the noblest branch of physics.

A consistent pursuit of classical physics forces a transformation in the very heart of that physics.

Metaphysics is the attempt of the mind to rise above the mind.

Physics has the cutest words.

It's because somebody knows something about it that we can't talk about physics. It's the things that nobody knows anything about we can discuss.

Quantum mechanics has explained all of chemistry and most of physics.

Metaphysics keeps surviving its obituaries.

Physics depends on a universe infinitely centred on an equals sign.

The smallest thought could not exist unless the entire universe and the laws of physics were in some way encouraging it.

The one thing we can't really train for is weightlessness, real weightlessness. It's a ton of fun. It's pure Newtonian physics. You push in one direction, you go in the opposite direction with an equal force.

I went to Princeton specifically to study physics.

Physics is really figuring out how to discover new things that are counterintuitive, like quantum mechanics. It's really counterintuitive.
