Dark energy is perhaps the biggest mystery in physics.

Politics follows the lines of physics: every action creates an equal and opposite reaction.

I've always been fascinated by physics and cosmology. It gets more and more scary the older you get.

Magnetism, as you recall from physics class, is a powerful force that causes certain items to be attracted to refrigerators.

I've learnt more physics from Kabbalah than I ever did in school.

It would be better for the true physics if there were no mathematicians on earth.

I went to Princeton specifically to study physics.

I remember being in strong physics, physiology and biology classes.

It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how Nature is. Physics concerns what we say about Nature.

If anybody says he can think about quantum physics without getting giddy, that only shows he has not understood the first thing about them.

I am now convinced that theoretical physics is actually philosophy.

Many applications of the coincidence method will therefore be found in the large field of nuclear physics, and we can say without exaggeration that the method is one of the essential tools of the modern nuclear physicist.

It's not magic! It's physics. The speed of the turn is what keeps you upright. It's like a spinning top.

Louis Armstrong is quite simply the most important person in American music. He is to 20th century music (I did not say jazz) what Einstein is to physics.

Well, I'm leaning probably toward the sciences like physics.

I was so pleased to be at university to do physics and mathematics.

Even when I was studying mathematics, physics, and computer science, it always seemed that the problem of consciousness was about the most interesting problem out there for science to come to grips with.

The development of physics, like the development of any science, is a continuous one.

Relativity must replace absolutism in the realm of morals as well as in the spheres of physics and biology.

There are relatively few experiments in atomic physics these days that don't involve the use of a laser.

I did a thesis in experimental nuclear physics under the direction of Samuel K. Allison.

In 1971 I returned to the University of Chicago as Professor of Physics.

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.

Brian and I were both science students. You know science sort of math and physics side, you know.

I myself believe that there will one day be time travel because when we find that something isn't forbidden by the over-arching laws of physics we usually eventually find a technological way of doing it.

The methods of theoretical physics should be applicable to all those branches of thought in which the essential features are expressible with numbers.

Ever since I was a kid, I've had an enormous interest in the sciences - everything from quantum physics to anthropology.

It has become part of the accepted wisdom to say that the twentieth century was the century of physics and the twenty-first century will be the century of biology.

Biology is now bigger than physics, as measured by the size of budgets, by the size of the workforce, or by the output of major discoveries; and biology is likely to remain the biggest part of science through the twenty-first century.

I was always good at math and science and physics.

The abstract analysis of the world by mathematics and physics rests on the concepts of space and time.

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

Before the discovery of quantum mechanics, the framework of physics was this: If you tell me how things are now, I can then use the laws of physics to calculate, and hence predict, how things will be later.

The new formula in physics describes humans as paradoxical beings who have two complementary aspects: They can show properties of Newtonian objects and also infinite fields of consciousness.

I am fascinated by quantum physics.

It's always a combination of physics and poetry that I find inspiring. It's hard to wrap your head around things like the Hubble scope.

When modern physics exerts itself to establish the world's formula, what occurs thereby is this: the being of entities has resolved itself into the method of the totally calculable.

Yes, I was really good in physics and in math.

Teaching physics at the University, and more general lecturing to wider audiences has been a major concern.

Physics is becoming too difficult for the physicists.

My students know I have a life, they know I've written about my life. They know some detail, probably more than they know about their physics teacher, but I would've told them anyway!

Quantum physics is a bit of a passion of mine. It's extraordinary. There's a branch of mathematics that is based on lunacy, and that's wonderful.

It is just physics - who can argue with Newton and the first law of thermodynamics?

In science there is only physics; all the rest is stamp collecting.

Cambridge was the place for someone from the Colonies or the Dominions to go on to, and it was to the Cavendish Laboratory that one went to do physics.

Originally I had planned to revert to nuclear physics there, in particular the structure of the deuteron.

We live, I think, in the century of science and, perhaps, even in the century of physics.

Think of color, pitch, loudness, heaviness, and hotness. Each is the topic of a branch of physics.

When the weather changes, nobody believes the laws of physics have changed. Similarly, I don't believe that when the stock market goes into terrible gyrations its rules have changed.

I do not keep up with the details of particle physics.

The laws of physics should allow us to arrange things molecule by molecule and even atom by atom, and at some point it was inevitable that we would develop a technology that would let us do this.

My background is in theoretical physics, and it's something very close to my heart.

In physics, all can you do is predict the consequences of physical laws.

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

There are two worlds we live in: a material world, bound by the laws of physics, and the world inside our mind, which is just as important.

Physiology is the science which treats of the properties of organic bodies, animal and vegetable, of the phenomena they present, and of the laws which govern their actions. Inorganic substances are the objects of other sciences, - physics and chemistry.

Ultimately, my Ph.D. is in mathematical physics, focusing on quantum field theory and curved space-time, and I worked with Stephen Hawking.

This book is about physics and its about physics and its relationship with mathematics and how they seem to be intimately related and to what extent can you explore this relationship and trust it.

And the actual achievements of biology are explanations in terms of mechanisms founded on physics and chemistry, which is not the same thing as explanations in terms of physics and chemistry.

But even physics cannot be defined from an atomic topography.

No inanimate object is ever fully determined by the laws of physics and chemistry.

So Whitehead's metaphysics doesn't fit very well on to physics as we understand the process of the world.

Nevertheless, all of us who work in quantum physics believe in the reality of a quantum world, and the reality of quantum entities like protons and electrons.

I abandoned chemistry to concentrate on mathematics and physics. In 1942, I travelled to Cambridge to take the scholarship examination at Trinity College, received an award and entered the university in October 1943.

I was not an especially diligent student but nevertheless obtained a reasonable education in physics.

My background is in physics, so I was the mission specialist, who is sort of like the flight engineer on an airplane.

Acceleration is finite, I think according to some laws of physics.

We live in a Newtonian world of Einsteinian physics ruled by Frankenstein logic.

All science is either physics or stamp collecting.

In 1948 I was appointed to a Lectureship in Physics and in 1949 elected to a Fellowship at Trinity College.

Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.

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

The NFL today has bigger, stronger, bodies than ever, moving faster than ever, hitting a stationary object harder than ever before - so the physics of the hit have changed.

They can shout down the head of the physics department at Cal Tech.

Physics has the cutest words.
