Johann Georg Hamann Quotes

The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works.

There is no science in this world like physics. Nothing comes close to the precision with which physics enables you to understand the world around you. It's the laws of physics that allow us to say exactly what time the sun is going to rise. What time the eclipse is going to begin. What time the eclipse is going to end.

There are 15 main theories in physics, and we know all of them. If there weren't a finite number of theories, there would not be a point to physics.

Physics is, hopefully, simple. Physicists are not.

People want to know about what's going on with what's in the universe, what are particles like, what are the basic rules of nature. It's a lot of curiosity out there.

I think I always wanted to go into physics. What always fascinated me about science was the desire to understand what underlies it all, and I think physics is basically the study of that.

I love physics because it's neat and it's orderly in its own peculiar way.

I thought I should study physics because it's fundamental to all science.

A physicist is just an atom's way of looking at itself.

From the dawn of history, science has probed the universe of unknowns, searching for the uniting laws of nature.

Physics is based on the assumption that certain fundamental features of nature are constant.

The universe is governed by science. But science tells us that we can't solve the equations, directly in the abstract.

Physics is the only profession in which prophecy is not only accurate but routine.

Physics is experience, arranged in economical order.

There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now, All that remains is more and more precise measurement

All phenomena] are equally susceptible of being calculated, and all that is necessary, to reduce the whole of nature to laws similar to those which Newton discovered with the aid of the calculus, is to have a sufficient number of observations and a mathematics that is complex enough.

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

I love physics.

Mathematics, the non-empirical science par excellence . . . the science of sciences, delivering the key to those laws of nature and the universe which are concealed by appearances.

Nature allows only experimental situations to occur which can be described within the framework of the formalism of quantum mechanics

For a physicist mathematics is not just a tool by means of which phenomena can be calculated, it is the main source of concepts and principles by means of which new theories can be created.

A consistent pursuit of classical physics forces a transformation in the very heart of that physics.

There is nothing special in the world. nothing magic. just physics.

Where there is matter, there is geometry.

We must be physicists in order to be creative since so far codes of values and ideals have been constructed in ignorance of physics or even in contradiction to physics.
