Physics Quotes

Children need to be exploring their physical world. They need to be learning the fundamental laws of physics by manipulating objects.

David Perlmutter

Learning Children World Physics Need

I was a very good student. But I didn't have the latitude to study more. I was never allowed to do anything cross-disciplinary. Why can't an engineering student learn physics?

Good Engineering Learn Physics Why

Modern low temperature physics began with the liquefaction of helium by Kamerlingh Onnes and the discovery of superconductivity at the University of Leiden in the early part of the 20th century.

Physics Early Discovery University

In the late '30's when I was in college, physics - and in particular, nuclear physics - was the most exciting field in the world.

Rosalyn Sussman Yalow

College World Physics Late Exciting

The amount of subtle and beautiful physics that's necessary to make a smartphone work is enormous.

Work Beautiful Physics Necessary

You won't see me writing about particle physics, or even planetary geology, or chemistry. I practically failed chemistry, and if I had to write a book in any of those areas, I don't think it would go well.

Me Writing Book Think You Physics

If I were not a writer, I would spend more time doing the things that I am already doing, which include doing research in physics, teaching, and running a nonprofit organization with a mission to empower women in Cambodia.

Women Time I Am Research Physics

Physics is often stranger than science fiction, and I think science fiction takes its cues from physics: higher dimensions, wormholes, the warping of space and time, stuff like that.

Science Time Space Think Physics

In a previous life I wrote the software that controlled my physics experiments. That software had to deal with all kinds of possible failures in equipment. That is probably where I learned to rely on multiple safety nets inside and around my systems.

Life Safety Physics Possible Inside

I went to the University of Washington as a physics and astronomy major. My other interest, of course, was aviation. I always wanted to be a pilot. And if you're going to fly airplanes, the best place to be is the Air Force.

Michael P. Anderson

Best Fly You Physics Place Pilot

In politics, as in physics, every reaction is met with an equal and opposite reaction.

Politics Physics Reaction Equal Met

I'm into the law of attraction and quantum physics. Like cosmic ordering. It's all about thinking lovely things that you would like in life, and feeling good about them before they manifest, so that by the time they do, you don't want them because you're on to your next desire.

Life Good Time Law Thinking Physics

When I was a student, the laws of physics were regarded as completely off limits. The job of the scientist, we were told, is to discover the laws and apply them, not inquire into their provenance.

Job Limits Physics Student Laws Off

We can't really do any improv on 'The Big Bang' because we don't understand a lot of what the dialogue means to begin with, because of the physics jargon.

Physics Understand Begin Improv Big

There are several books that I have-the Physics of Star Trek, Star Trek and Business, there are manuals on command style and countless scholarly papers that have been written about the significance of Next Generation.

Patrick Stewart

Business Style Generation Physics

Other than the laws of physics, rules have never really worked out for me.

Me Physics Rules Never Out Laws

Quantum physics is one of the hardest things to understand intuitively, because essentially the whole point is that our classical picture is wrong.

Picture Physics Wrong Understand

Before the discovery of quantum mechanics, the framework of physics was this: If you tell me how things are now, I can then use the laws of physics to calculate, and hence predict, how things will be later.

Me You Physics Discovery I Can Now

In 1971 I returned to the University of Chicago as Professor of Physics.

Physics Chicago University Professor

It is impossible to trap modern physics into predicting anything with perfect determinism because it deals with probabilities from the outset.

Arthur Eddington

Impossible Physics Perfect Anything

The paradigm of physics - with its interplay of data, theory and prediction - is the most powerful in science.

Science Data Physics Powerful Theory

I had been interested in particle physics, which deals with the fundamental constituents of matter.

Physics Matter Been Interested Deals

Either theology is pure nonsense, a subject with no content, or else theology must ultimately become a branch of physics.

Physics Become Nonsense Content Pure

I am not enough of a mathematician to be able to judge either the well-foundedness or the limits of relativity in physics.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

I Am Limits Judge Enough Physics Am
