Quotes About Quantum

the possibility, so brilliantly intuited by Heisenberg, that nature gives every observer what he's looking for.
~ Deepak Chopra
Quantum healing moves away from external, high-technology methods toward the deepest core of the mind-body system. This core is where healing begins. To go there and learn to promote the healing response, you must get past all the grosser levels of the body—cells, tissues, organs, and systems—and arrive at the junction point between mind and matter, the point where consciousness actually starts to have an effect.
~ Deepak Chopra
Why are some particles arranged so that we feel we are having a subjective experience?
~ Deepak Chopra
It is important to realize that in physics today, we have no knowledge of what energy is
~ Richard P. Feynman
In a world described by quantum physics, an insistence on causal closure of the physical world amounts to a quasi-religious faith in the absolute powers of matter, a belief that is no more than a commitment to brute, and outmoded, materialism.
~ Jeffrey M. Schwartz
This was Einstein's explanation for the phenomenon of entangled particles, which he termed "spooky action at a distance.")
~ Jennifer Egan
Time is irrelevant to math.
~ Jennifer Egan
2004 film called What the Bleep Do We Know!?
~ Jennifer Michael Hecht
Naturally we project that the moon is always there in space-time, even when we are not looking. Quantum physics says no. When we are not looking, the moon's possibility wave spreads, albeit by a minuscule amount. When we look, the wave collapses instantly; thus the wave could not be in space-time. It makes more sense to adapt an idealist metaphysic assumption: There is no object in space-time without a conscious subject looking at it.
~ Amit Goswami
the fundamental process of Nature lies outside space-time but generates events that can be located in space-time.
~ Amit Goswami
Consciousness is the agency that collapses the wave of a quantum object, which exists in potentia, making it an immanent particle in the world of manifestation.
~ Amit Goswami
Once we accept quantum nonlocality as an established physical aspect of the world in which we live, it becomes easier within science to conceive of a transcendent domain outside the manifest physical domain of space-time.
~ Amit Goswami
Quantum physics presents a new and exciting worldview that challenges old concepts, such as deterministic trajectories of motion and causal continuity. If initial conditions do not forever determine an object's motion, if instead, every time we observe, there is a new beginning, then the world is creative at the base level.
~ Amit Goswami
Moreover, it seems absurd that an epiphenomenon of matter can affect matter: If consciousness is an epiphenomenon, how can it collapse the spread-out wave of a quantum object to a localized particle when it takes a quantum measurement?
~ Amit Goswami
Quantum mechanics tells us that every feeling is a collapse of some wave functions due to the interference of a matrix of attention functions.
~ Amit Ray
The 114 chakras are the quantum energy vortexes connected with the Akashic Records.
~ Amit Ray
populations at scale. There is greater upheaval still to come. In 2019, Google announced it had achieved "quantum supremacy"—a computing breakthrough so powerful that a math problem a supercomputer would need ten thousand years to solve could be cracked by its machine in just three minutes and twenty seconds.
~ Amy B. Zegart
Things on a very small scale behave like nothing that you have any direct experience about. They do not behave like waves, they do not behave like particles, they do not behave like clouds, or billiard balls, or weights on springs, or like anything that you have ever seen.
~ Richard P. Feynman
We talk about quantum weirdness and things being in two places at once, but it all involves atoms and molecules, stuff we don't normally interact with.
~ Aaron D. O'Connell
We seem gradually to be groping toward an understanding of the world of subatomic particles, but we really do not know how far we have yet to go in this task.
~ Richard P. Feynman
In The Craft the clockwork God of Newtonian determinism has been replaced by the quantum-aware Great Architect who is ready and willing to allow us to contribute to His malleable Plan for the cosmos.
~ Robert Lomas
The period tells us the mass, of course
~ Larry Niven
A physicist is just an atom's way of looking at itself.
~ Niels Bohr
When I hear of Schrödinger's cat, I reach for my pistol.
~ Stephen Hawking
