Quotes About Particles

Particles couldn't contain the fullness of Spirit, and that led to something new.

Of course, we all consist of molecules, which consist of atoms, which consist of particles and/or waves and we all remain in various maybe states until we make a choice in the existential sense.

Well, as explained in the last section, non-local correlations transcend causality and also subvert our traditional notions of space and time. If two particles — or events, or Whatnots — have a non-local correlation, in modern quantum theory, this means that they will remain correlated even when no signal, no field, no mechanical push-or-pull, no energy, no cause of any sort can travel from one to the other.

Air dogs excelled at tracking scent in the air. Ground dogs like bloodhounds and beagles worked best tracking scent particles close to or on the ground. Scott

In the infinite consciousness universes come and go like particles of dust in a beam of sunlight that shines through a hole in the roof. Death is ever keeping a watch over our life. All objects are experienced in the subject and nowhere else. Whole worlds arise and fall like ripples in the ocean.

Why are some particles arranged so that we feel we are having a subjective experience?

This was Einstein's explanation for the phenomenon of entangled particles, which he termed "spooky action at a distance.")

The weird thing about the arrow of time is that it's not to be found in the underlying laws of physics. It's not there. So it's a feature of the universe we see, but not a feature of the laws of the individual particles. So the arrow of time is built on top of whatever local laws of physics apply.

I have a very limited knowledge of recording, but the miracle of being able to capture sounds on magnetic tape and the miracle of electricity, and these little magnetic particles, is amazing to me.

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.

Investigating the forces that hold the nuclear particles together was a long task.

The leading candidates for being the building blocks of dark matter are WIMPS, or "weakly interacting massive particles." They are called massive only in a relative sense, meaning they are larger than a proton or a hydrogen atom.

Young man, if I could remember the names of these particles, I would have been a botanist.

Where the electron behaves and misbehaves as it will, where the forces tie themselves up into knots of atoms and come united.

Subatomic particles do not exist but rather show 'tendencies to exist', and atomic events do not occur with certainty at definite times and in definite ways, but rather show 'tendencies to occur'.

We ourselves are made of Stardust.

Sand in reality is nothing else than very small stones.

A live body and a dead body contain the same number of particles. Structurally, there's no discernible difference. Life and death are unquantifiable abstracts. Why should I be concerned?

Interplanetary dust," I repeated, liking the feel of the words on my tongue.

Memories are microscopic. Tiny particles that swarm together and apart. Little people, Edison called them. Entities.

Memories are microscopic. Tiny particles that swarm together and apart. Little people, Edison called them. Entities. He had a theory about where they came from and that theory was outer space.

Memories are microscopic. Tiny particles that swarm together and apart.

Los recuerdos son microscópicos. Partículas diminutas que se agolpan y se dispersan. Gente minúscula, los llamó Edison. Criaturas. Tenía una teoría sobre su origen: llegaban del espacio exterior".

All at once the cockpit lit up with a sort of white glow because your entry was at 25,000 miles an hour and it was ionising some of the first particles of air you had. So it was kinda a little bit like being inside a weak neon bulb.
