"Physics is becoming so unbelievably complex that it is taking longer and longer to train a physicist. It takes so long to train a physicist to the place where he understands the nature of physical problems that he is already too old to solve them." ------------------------- "It is nice to know that the computer understands the problem. But I would like to understand it too." ------------------------- "[While] solipsism may be logically consistent with present quantum mechanics, monism in the sense of materialism is not." ------------------------- "The simplicities of natural laws arise through the complexities of the language we use for their expression." ------------------------- "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences" |

"Things are seldom what they seem, / Skim milk masquerades as cream." ------------------------- "If you wish in this world to advance your merits you're bound to enhance; you must stir it and stump it, and blow your own trumpet, or, trust me, you haven't a chance." ------------------------- "Oh, don't the days seem lank and long,/ When all goes right and nothing goes wrong,/ And isn't your life extremely flat,/ When you've nothing whatever to grumble at?" ------------------------- "One cannot eat breakfast all day,/ Nor is it the act of a sinner,/ When breakfast is taken away,/ To turn his attention to dinner;/ And it's not in the range of belief,/ To look upon him as a glutton,/ Who, when he is tired of beef,/ Determines to tackle the mutton." ------------------------- "When you're lying awake with a dismal headache, and repose is tabooed by anxiety, / I conceive you may use any language you choose to indulge in without impropriety." |

"Sometimes the mind, for reasons we don't necessarily understand, just decides to go to the store for a quart of milk."
