The object of pure Physic[s] is the unfolding of the laws of the intelligible world; the object of pure Mathematic[s] that of unfolding the laws of human intelligence.
I tell you the solemn truth, that the doctrine of the Trinity is not so difficult to accept for a working proposition as any one of the axioms of physics.
In modern physics, the universe is experienced as a dynamic inseparable whole which always includes the observer in an essential way.
In my schooling through high school, I excelled mainly in chemistry, physics and mathematics.
Physics investigates the essential nature of the world, and biology describes a local bump. Psychology, human psychology, describes a bump on the bump.
One does not have to appeal to God to set the initial conditions for the creation of the universe, but if one does He would have to act through the laws of physics.
Rulers do not like to admit that their power is restricted by any laws other than those of physics and biology. They never ascribe their failures and frustrations to the violation of economic law.
Classical physics has been superseded by quantum theory: quantum theory is verified by experiments. Experiments must be described in terms of classical physics.
My background is in physics, so I was the mission specialist, who is sort of like the flight engineer on an airplane.
There is nothing that living things do that cannot be understood from the point of view that they are made of atoms acting according to the laws of physics.
We have lived in a world where the discoveries of physics and genetics are far more awe-inspiring, as well as infinitely more liberating, than the claims of any religion.
Physics is nothing but the ABC's. Nature is an equation with an unknown, a Hebrew word which is written only with consonants to which reason has to add the dots.
I am too good for philosophy and not good enough for physics. Mathematics is in between.
In 1948 I was appointed to a Lectureship in Physics and in 1949 elected to a Fellowship at Trinity College.
Some string theorists prefer to believe that string theory is too arcane to be understood by human beings, rather than consider the possibility that it might just be wrong.
Politics follows the lines of physics: every action creates an equal and opposite reaction.
The history of atomism is one of reductionism – the effort to reduce all the operations of nature to a small number of laws governing a small number of primordial objects.
Energy is liberated matter, matter is energy waiting to happen.
A mathematician believes that describing the speed of Mercury with equations amounts to science.
There is no logical staircase running from the physics of 10-28 cm. to the physics of 1028 light-years.
In physics, to be in two places at the same time would be a miracle; in politics it seems not merely normal, but natural.
Quantum physics is no longer an abstract theory for specialists. We must now absolutely include it in our education and also in our culture.
To me, the difference between mythology and real history is that the real history has to tell a kind of believable story of how things happened. The physics has to work.
The physics are simple in theory, but in practice they are filled with the possibility for limitless error.
I can't think that it would be terrible of me to say - and it is occasionally true - that I need physics more than friends.
The laws of physics have already been violated. What happens if they decide to press charges?
I've always been fascinated by physics and cosmology. It gets more and more scary the older you get.
There are two worlds we live in: a material world, bound by the laws of physics, and the world inside our mind, which is just as important.
I think science and spirituality are one and the same, I don't think they're really different. The film makes pretty clear that quantum physics is validating all kinds of spiritual teachings.
Computer science needs to be part of the core curriculum - like algebra, biology, physics, or chemistry. We need all schools to teach it, not just 10%.
I considered law and math. My Dad was a lawyer. I think though I would have ended up in physics if I didn't end up in computer science.
The prediction of nuclear winter is drawn not, of course, from any direct experience with the consequences of global nuclear war, but rather from an investigation of the governing physics.
Given that I was interested in physics, I think it was easier for me to do physics in India.
Biology will tell you a lot of things, but there are many that it can not explain and you need to look at physics instead.
Quantum physics has found that there is no empty space in the human cell, but it is a teeming, electric-magnet ic field of possibility or potential
A time will however come (as I believe) when physiology will invade and destroy mathematical physics, as the latter has destroyed geometry.
After 12 years in the minor leagues, I don't try out. Besides, uh, I don't believe in quantum physics when it comes to matters of the heart.
The powerful notion of entropy, which comes from a very special branch of physics … is certainly useful in the study of communication and quite helpful when applied in the theory of language.
Relativity must replace absolutism in the realm of morals as well as in the spheres of physics and biology.
At the moment I'm doing this space movie, so I'm obsessed with physics and space travel. I know three months down the line it's gone. Then I'll be able to superficially say stuff about space.
To me quantum computation is a new and deeper and better way to understand the laws of physics, and hence understanding physical reality as a whole.
So Whitehead's metaphysics doesn't fit very well on to physics as we understand the process of the world.
Nevertheless, all of us who work in quantum physics believe in the reality of a quantum world, and the reality of quantum entities like protons and electrons.
