More quotes by Niels Bohr

Niels Bohr
The meaning of life consists in the fact that it makes no sense to say that life has no meaning.
Niels Bohr
Your theory is crazy, but it's not crazy enough to be true.
Niels Bohr
It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how nature is. Physics concerns what we say about nature.
Niels Bohr

Niels Bohr

Niels Bohr

Niels Bohr
It is, indeed, perhaps the greatest prospect of humanistic studies to contribute through an increasing knowledge of the history of cultural development to that gradual removal of prejudices which is the common aim of all science.
Niels Bohr
Accuracy and clarity of statement are mutually exclusive.
Niels Bohr
Nothing exists until it is measured.
Niels Bohr
If you have a correct statement, then the opposite of a correct statement is of course an incorrect statement, a wrong statement. But when you have a deep truth, then the opposite of a deep truth may again be a deep truth.
Niels Bohr
