Pain is the price of power.

Physicists cannot explain atoms to their children, not because we are ignorant but because we know too much.

Though today's quantum theory shows no sign of weakness, someday it may collapse.

Physicists, for all their odd notions, are basically a conservative lot.

The quantum world is objective but objectless.

Most everywhere, most of the time, the world dwells in an unmeasured state.

When men are dying every hour, no one looks too hard at one more dead man.

The pragmatist regards any theory as a mere mathematical machine for generating numbers which he then compares with experiment. A pragmatist is concerned with results, not reality.
