Physics Quotes

Hard to be a physics major at Rice University if you have flunked calculus.

You Physics Hard University Rice

The first rule of world-building is available physics, which basically means that if you want it to feel real, it has to follow the same rules as this world, from gravity to how human behaviour works. If you have a fantasy element that doesn't obey the laws of physics, make sure that it has a fantasy explanation.

World Feel You Physics Rules Want

Physics is becoming too difficult for the physicists.

Physics Difficult Becoming Physicists

I have a problem with telling jokes about physics. Quite often the audience have no idea what you are talking about and, to be honest, I don't know what I'm talking about either.

Problem Talking You Physics Know

Politics is a lot tougher than physics.

Politics Physics Than Lot Tougher

I cannot quantify the physics of friendships and do not know exactly how much intense pressure can be applied before these glittery, brittle bonds break.

Pressure Physics Know Break Intense

Indubitably, magic is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgment and practice than in any other branch of physics.

Aleister Crowley

Opportunity Practice Magic Physics

Discipline may be identified neither with an institution nor with an apparatus; it is a type of power, a modality for its exercise, comprising a whole set of instruments, techniques, procedures, levels of application, targets; it is a 'physics' or 'anatomy' of power, a technology.

Michel Foucault

Technology Power Discipline Physics

Physics investigates the essential nature of the world, and biology describes a local bump. Psychology, human psychology, describes a bump on the bump.

Willard Van Orman Quine

My undergraduate degree was in history, and I wish I had been smart enough to really excel at maths, physics, chemistry or biology because... the voyagers and adventurers and real contributors - that's where they come from.

History Smart Wish Enough Physics

I had imagined doing nuclear physics and cosmic ray work in greater style in peace time. To do modern physics in a small way is of no use of all.

Werner Heisenberg

Work Time Style Peace Small Physics

I want to try to do something for women in physics worldwide.

Mildred Dresselhaus

Women Physics Want Try Something

The birth of science as we know it arguably began with Isaac Newton's formulation of the laws of gravitation and motion. It is no exaggeration to say that physics was reborn in the early 20th-century with the twin revolutions of quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity.

Science Physics Early Know Say Laws

My only wish would be to have 10 more lives to live on this planet. If that were possible, I'd spend one lifetime each in embryology, genetics, physics, astronomy and geology. The other lifetimes would be as a pianist, backwoodsman, tennis player, or writer for the 'National Geographic.'

Live Wish Physics Possible Tennis

As an undergraduate, I did maths and physics. That doesn't make me a scientist. So I try to read and understand and talk to scientists.

Me Physics Understand Try Talk Read

Bowling is all physics and energy distribution. It's F = ma. So it is actually one of the most science-y sports, because it literally is just a ball and a surface and objects to knock down.

Sports Energy Physics Down Ball

I never got into 'Star Wars.' Maybe because they made no attempt to portray real physics. At all.

Neil deGrasse Tyson

Physics Never Real Star Got Because

The bottom line is that time travel is allowed by the laws of physics.

Time Travel Physics Time Travel Line

Philosophy used to be a field that had content, but then 'natural philosophy' became physics, and physics has only continued to make inroads. Every time there's a leap in physics, it encroaches on these areas that philosophers have carefully sequestered away to themselves, and so then you have this natural resentment on the part of philosophers.

Lawrence M. Krauss

Time Philosophy You Physics Leap

Whether it's in an inner-city school or a rural community, I want those students to have a chance to take A.P. biology and A.P. physics and marine biology.

Community School Chance Physics Want

Just the actual physics of putting it all together, you know, the latter period is actually quite fragmented in terms of the licenses and all those things so it makes a compilation of the full twenty years really a technical minefield.

Together You Physics Know Years

Doing physics is a lot of fun if you like it.

Fun Doing You Physics Like Lot

If any reader has lost a loved one or is afraid of death, modern physics says: 'Be comforted, you and they shall live again.'

Live Death Loved You Physics Lost

The possibilities that are suggested in quantum physics tell us that everything that we're looking at may not be in fact there, so the underlying nature of being is weird.

William Shatner
