[George] Uhlenbeck was a highly gifted physicist. One of his remarkable traits was he would read every issue of T%he Physical Review from cover to cover.
Abraham Pais
Image
I am a particle physicist, which is the nearest branch to nuclear physics. So in that sense I was the sort of right connection with the subject of nuclear energy and so on.
Abdus Salam
Image
I'm really fascinated by the parallels between quantum theory and the teachings of some of these ancient texts. So many of the things that quantum physicists are talking about today, like non-locality and the observer effect, are things the yogis have been saying for thousands of years.
Beryl Bender Birch

Very strange people, physicists - in my experience the ones who aren't dead are in some way very ill.
Douglas Adams
Image
It may be that DMT makes us able to perceive what the physicist call dark matter - the 95 per cent of the universe's mass that is known to exist but that at present remains invisible to our senses and instruments.
Graham Hancock
Image
The development of quantum mechanics early in the twentieth century obliged physicists to change radically the concepts they used to describe the world.
Alain Aspect
Image
The physicist's problem is the problem of ultimate origins and ultimate natural laws. The biologist's problem is the problem of complexity.
Richard Dawkins
Image
When you realize that the laws of nature must be incredibly finely tuned to produce the universe we see, that conspires to plant the idea that the universe did not just happen, but that there must be a purpose behind it.
John Polkinghorne
Image
If you want to be a physicist, you must do three things-first, study mathematics, second, study more mathematics, and third, do the same.
Arnold Sommerfeld
Image
We physicists don't like to admit it, but some of us are closet science fiction fans. We hate to admit it because it sounds undignified. But when we were children, that's when we got interested in science, for a lot of us.
Michio Kaku

Wisdom is not mathematical, nor astronomical, nor zoological when it talks too much of any one thing it ceases to be itself. There are wise physicists, but wisdom is not physical there are wise physicians, but wisdom is not medical.
George Sarton
Image
For it is the same whether you take it that the Earth is in motion or the Sky. For, in both the cases, it does not affect the Astronomical Science. It is just for the Physicist to see if it is possible to refute it.
Abu Rayhan al-Biruni

Physicists are made of atoms. A physicist is an attempt by an atom to understand itself.
Michio Kaku
Image
When I was younger, I read a book by Frank Barnaby, this wonderful nuclear physicist. He said that media had a responsibility, that all sectors of society had a responsibility to try and move things forward. And that fascinated me... I'd been messing around with a camera most of my life...
Jeremy Gilley

The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.
Albert Einstein
Image
Mathematicians also make terrible salesmen. Physicists can discover the same thing as a mathematician and say 'We've discovered a great new law of nature. Give us a billion dollars.' And if it doesn't change the world, then they say, 'There's an even deeper thing. Give us another billion dollars.'
Gian-Carlo Rota
Image
There were two kinds of physicists in Berlin: on the one hand there was Einstein, and on the other all the rest.
Rudolf Ladenburg
Image
Physicists are atoms' way of thinking about atoms.
Bill Bryson
Image
The painter's portrait and the physicist's explanation are both rooted in reality, but they have been changed by the painter or the physicist into something more subtly imagined than the photographic appearance of things.
Jacob Bronowski
Image
Global warming is the greatest and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my long life as a physicist.
Harold Lewis
Image
Misery is complexity. Happiness is simplicity.
Lester Levenson
Image
The next big accelerator might be the ILC in Japan, a linear collider which might be able to probe the boundaries of string theory. So we physicists have to learn how to engage the public so that taxpayers money is used to explore the nature of the universe.
Michio Kaku

Cal ’s eyes reflected a weird combination of frenzy and fear as he twisted toward his father. “My God! She’s on her way to becoming the most famous physicist in the country, and she’sdumb as a post ! You arenot having your baby in this house! You’re having it at the county hospital!
Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Image
The point is that the arts are important enough to have influenced the greatest minds and talents we know. Albert Einstein said that if he were not a physicist, he would probably be a musician.
