Top 10 Quotes on weirdness of Quantum mechanics

Common sense takes a vacation in quantum mechanics, and scientists often find themselves scratching their heads trying to understand it. Here are the thoughts of a few great scientists on quantum mechanics.

“If quantum mechanics hasn’t profoundly shocked you, you haven’t understood it yet.” – Niels Bohr

“God does not play dice with the universe.” – Albert Einstein

“I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.”- Richard Feynman

“I don’t like it, and I’m sorry I ever had anything to do with it.” – Erwin Schrödinger

“This isn’t right. This isn’t even wrong.” – Wolfgang Pauli

“The universe is not only stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine.” – B.S. Haldane

“When I hear of Schrödinger’s cat, I reach for my gun.” – Stephen Hawking

“Quantum mechanics makes absolutely no sense.” – Roger Penrose

“Observations not only disturb what is to be measured, they produce it.” – Pascual Jordan

Do you have to say anything on the quantum mechanics?

Dr. Gaurav SHUKLA

I am an Early Career Scientist at Institute of Nanoscience - National Research Council (CNR - NANO), Pisa, Italy. Currently, I am involve in fabricating the Josephson junction based superconducting diodes and Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs). I have a Ph.D. in Physics from a National Research Lab (Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences, Bangalore, India), where I have fabricated self-cleaning surfaces, bioinspired structural colors, ultrasensitive biomolecule sensing devices and gas sensors. I like to communicate science to the public by writing blogs, demonstrating scientific models, and invited talks at several platforms.
