“In terms of the most astonishing fact about which we know nothing, there is dark matter and dark energy. We don't know what either of them is. Everything we know and love about the universe and all the laws of physics as they apply, apply to four percent of the universe. That's stunning.” KnowsMatterFactsLawUniverseEnergyTermDarkFourPercentAnd LovePhysicsAstonishingStunningLaws Of PhysicsDark MatterDark Energy Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson
“Most Muggles lived in a world defined by the limits of what you could do with cars and telephones. Even though Muggle physics explicitly permitted possibilities like molecular nanotechnology or the Penrose process for extracting energy from black holes, most people filed that away in the same section of their brain that stored fairy tales and history books, well away from their personal realities: Long ago and far away, ever so long ago.” PeopleWorldWellsLongBookRealityEnergyProcessBlackBrainCarPossibilityLimitsPhysicsHolesTalesDefinedFairyFairy TaleFar AwayLong AgoSectionsTelephonesBlack HoleHistory BooksNanotechnologyMuggles Author:Eliezer Yudkowsky
“It seems significant that according to quantum physics the indestructibility of energy on one hand which expresses its timeless existence and the appearance of energy in space and time on the other hand correspond to two contradictory (complementary) aspects of reality. In fact, both are always present, but in individual cases the one or the other may be more pronounced.” MayTwoFactsHandsRealitySeemsIndividualEnergySpaceExistenceCasesAspectAppearancePhysicsSignificantQuantumTimelessTime And SpaceContradictoryQuantum PhysicsComplementary Book:Atom and Archetype: The Pauli/Jung Letters, 1932-1958 Source: Atom and Archetype: The Pauli/Jung Letters, 1932-1958
“Conferences with open attendance are very important for the stimulation of young people or other people who are new in the field. ... The field of high-energy physics is, as you know, very strongly in the hands of a clique and it is hard for an outsider to enter.” PeopleKnowsImportantHardHandsYoungEnergyFieldsPhysicsVery StrongOutsidersConferencesStimulationCliqueAttendanceHigh Energy Author:Victor Frederick Weisskopf
“Think of all the nonsense you had to learn in psychology courses. None of which was testable. None of which was measurable. We had behaviorism, Freudian psychology, all of these theories that you learn in psychology. Totally untestable. Now, we can test it, because physics allows us to calculate energy flows in the brain.” ThinkingCoursesEnergyBrainPsychologyTheoryFlowTestsPhysicsNonsenseBehaviorismEnergy Flow Author:Michio Kaku
“Every force field is simultaneously a field of information because even physics now acknowledges that an atom is not only a hierarchy of different states of energy, or different states of force fields.” DifferentStatesEnergyForceInformationFieldsPhysicsAcknowledgeAtomsHierarchyForce Fields Author:Deepak Chopra
