Physicist quotes
" I don't mind what language an opera is sung in so long as it is a language I don't understand. "

Sir Edward Appleton
" If a `religion' is defined to be a system of ideas that contains unprovable statements, then Godel taught us that mathematics is not only a religion, it is the only religion that can prove itself to be one. "

John D. Barrow
" An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field. "

Niels Bohr
" Never express yourself more clearly than you are able to think. "

Niels Bohr
" Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future. "

Niels Bohr
" The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth. "

Niels Bohr
" Your theory is crazy, but it's not crazy enough to be true. "

Niels Bohr
" God runs electromagnetics by wave theory on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and the Devil runs them by quantum theory on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. "

Sir William Bragg
" The important thing in science is not so much to obtain new facts as to discover new ways of thinking about them. "

Sir William Bragg
" During [these] periods of relaxation after concentrated intellectual activity, the intuitive mind seems to take over and can produce the sudden clarifying insights which give so much joy and delight. "

Fritjof Capra
" I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale. "

Marie Curie
" Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less. "

Marie Curie
" There are sadistic scientists who hurry to hunt down errors instead of establishing the truth. "

Marie Curie
" You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. "

Marie Curie
" We must not forget that when radium was discovered no one knew that it would prove useful in hospitals. The work was one of pure science. And this is a proof that scientific work must not be considered from the point of view of the direct usefulness of it. It must be done for itself, for the beauty of science, and then there is always the chance that a scientific discovery may become like the radium a benefit for humanity. "
