Quotes
All of physics is either impossible or trivial. It is impossible until you understand it, and then it becomes trivial.
Ernest Rutherford
There are many ways of knocking electrons out of atoms. The simplest is to rub two surfaces together.
Fred Hoyle
I accept no principles of physics which are not also accepted in mathematics.
René Descartes
Physics is actually too hard for physicists.
David Hilbert
I am busy just now again on electro-magnetism, and I think I may have got hold of a good thing.
Michael Faraday
No one undertakes research in physics with the intention of winning a prize. It is the joy of discovering something no one knew before.
Stephen Hawking
Life is strong and fragile. It's a paradox... It's both things, like quantum physics: It's a particle and a wave at the same time. It all exists all together.
Joan Jett
What we usually consider as impossible are simply engineering problems... there's no law of physics preventing them.
Michio Kaku
I like physics. I think it is the best science out of all three of them, because generally it's more useful. You learn about speed and velocity and time, and that's all clever stuff.
Tom Felton
The new physics provides a modern version of ancient spirituality. In a universe made out of energy, everything is entangled; everything is one.
Bruce Lipton
Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.
Erwin Schrodinger
The development of physics, like the development of any science, is a continuous one.
Owen Chamberlain
The bottom line is that time travel is allowed by the laws of physics.
Brian Greene
It would be better for the true physics if there were no mathematicians on earth.
Daniel Bernoulli
The creation of Physics is the shared heritage of all mankind. East and West, North and South have equally participated in it.
Abdus Salam
Physics is about questioning, studying, probing nature. You probe, and, if you're lucky, you get strange clues.
Lene Hau
The Web is now philosophical engineering. Physics and the Web are both about the relationship between the small and the large.
Tim Berners-Lee
Magnetism, as you recall from physics class, is a powerful force that causes certain items to be attracted to refrigerators.
Dave Barry
