Everything that can happen, does. That's quantum mechanics. But this does not mean everything happens. The rest of physics is about describing what can happen and what can't.

I think the universe is pure geometry - basically, a beautiful shape twisting around and dancing over space-time.

The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works. And it tells us our reality is continually branching into different possibilities, just like a coral.

You cannot think when you're ecstatic.

There are a lot of good things about string theory, and it's great that some people want to work on it.

Yeah, I am a guy working on physics outside of academia. But I'm nowhere near Einstein's caliber.

Math does come easily to me, but I was always much more interested in what theorems imply about the world than in proving them.

Science is our last and greatest frontier.

Ninety-five per cent of my time is virtually wasted.

Coral is a very beautiful and unusual animal. Each coral head consists of thousand of individual polyps. These polyps are continually budding and branching into genetically identical neighbors.

What physics tells us is that everything comes down to geometry and the interactions of elementary particles. And things can happen only if these interactions are perfectly balanced.

I will listen to a beautiful person much more quickly than a plain person, and I have to learn to be nice to people who are not attractive looking.

There is no me. I do not exist. There used to be a me, but I had it surgically removed

An ambassador is an honest man sent to lie abroad for the commonwealth.

If we all die and there is no God, then it's just eternal unconsciousness, you'll never know, but if you're wrong... you'll know forever.

Every now and then you're going to get beaten, but we work hard.

Whatever the lady does is wrong. I do not know of a single right decision taken by her.

Advertising is a business within a business and the man who neglects it will soon find himself with a business without a business.

Oh, it's lovely to see you!' Franny said as the cab moved off. 'I've missed you.' The words were no sooner out than she realized that she didn't mean them at all.

To deny the predictive validity of race at this level is nonscientific and unrealistic.

In the very act of my non-co-operation, I am seeking their co-operation in my campaign.
