“Both matter and radiation possess a remarkable duality of character, as they sometimes exhibit the properties of waves, at other times those of particles. Now it is obvious that a thing cannot be a form of wave motion and composed of particles at the same time - the two concepts are too different” TwoDifferentSometimesMatterCharacterFormConceptsPropertyWaveObviousRemarkableRadiationParticlesDualityExhibits Book:The Physical Principles of the Quantum Theory Source: The Physical Principles of the Quantum Theory

“Therefore, the two processes, that of science and that of art, are not very different. Both science and art form in the course of the centuries a human language by which we can speak about the more remote parts of reality, and the coherent sets of concepts as well as the different styles of art are different words or groups of words in this language.” HumansWellsArtTwoDifferentRealityFormCoursesSpeakLanguageProcessGroupsCenturyStyleConceptsArt And ScienceDifferent StylesHuman Language Author:Werner Heisenberg

“It is probably true quite generally that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful developments frequently take place at those points where two different lines of thought meet. These lines may have their roots in quite different parts of human nature, in different times or different cultural environments or different religious traditions: hence if they actually meet, that is, if they are at least so much related to each other that a real interaction can take place, then one may hope that new and interesting developments may follow.” IfsThinkingHumansMayTwoDifferentRealReligiousLinesInterestingEnvironmentHuman NatureDevelopmentTraditionRootsRelatedInteractionDifferent TimesReligious Traditions Author:Werner Heisenberg
