  • When dealing with quantum entities you have to accept that there are no suitable analogies with the macroscopic world. An electron behaves like itself and nothing else.
  • Progress does not consist of replacing a theory that is wrong with one that is right. It consists of replacing a theory that is wrong with one that is more subtly wrong.
  • The seen and the unseen. The solid and the phantom. The real and the imagined. The known and the unknown. The concrete and the abstract. The tangible and the intangible.
  • Successful people are those who can make decisions, take the initiative, see the opportunities and know the moment to move. They are rarely clever, beautiful or educated.
  • All this contains much that is obviously true, and much that is relevant; unfortunately, what is obviously true is not relevant, and what is relevant is not obviously true.

  • Of all the communities available to us there is not one that I would devote myself to, except for the society of true searchers, which has very few living members at any time.
  • The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
  • Men Wanted: For hazardous journey. Small wages, bitter cold, long months of complete darkness, constant danger, safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in case of success.
  • The only way to deter a sophisticated adversary is to show them they don't even want to start because they will lose so decisively that it's not worth them taking that journey.
  • There's two possible outcomes: If the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a measurement. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery.
  • When I'm working on a problem, I never think about beauty. I think only of how to solve the problem. But when I've finished, if the solution isn't beautiful, I know it's wrong.
  • You need to be able to understand that you have your own confidence, that you can do whatever it is that you're required to do and other people will see that confidence in you.
  • Where it's dark as a dungeon, damp as the dew. Danger is double, pleasures are few. Where the rain never falls, the sun never shines. It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine.
  • If you're going to succeed, you've got put what you're trying to do first. Way before your own comfort, way before your own pleasure and way before your own family considerations.
  • In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.
  • There was a time when the whole world belonged to us. What are we now? A patch of land and a thousand monuments to past glories. Living off memories and stories, selling trinkets.
  • Because if we do not, or if we pussy-foot in our actions and do not achieve total success, in another few months we shall be living in another country whose word counts for little.
  • They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; / Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. / At the going down of the sun and in the morning / We will remember them.
  • There are many solutions to a problem. The most obvious solution is not always the best. The easiest one is not always the best. Analyse the problem and then pick the best solution.
  • If they wanted to be with you, they would be here. If they wanted to see you, they would. If they wanted to talk to you, they would call. If they loved you, they would be loving you.

  • There are some people you like immediately, some whom you think you might learn to like in the fullness of time, and some that you simply want to push away from you with a sharp stick.

  • Never get involved unless you are clear on your objective. Never pursue that objective unless you are willing to go in far further if needed. And finally, be prepared to lose everything.
  • I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
  • It is the mark of an educated mind to rest satisfied with the degree of precision which the nature of the subject admits and not to seek exactness where only an approximation is possible.
  • At the beginning of the day, we didn't know what was going to happen. While it was happening, we didn't know what was happening. And when it had happened, we didn't know what had happened.
  • Well now you know the hard part of being part of this team is not risking your own life. It's watching your friends take chances with theirs. Congratulations. Now you really are one of us.
  • In completing one discovery we never fail to get an imperfect knowledge of others of which we could have no idea before, so that we cannot solve one doubt without creating several new ones.
  • Praise not the day until evening has come; a woman until she is burnt; a sword until it is tried; a maiden until she is married; ice until it has been crossed; beer until it has been drunk.
  • Being abstract is something profoundly different from being vague... The purpose of abstraction is not to be vague, but to create a new semantic level in which one can be absolutely precise.
  • The idea is to try to give all the information to help others to judge the value of your contribution; not just the information that leads to judgment in one particular direction or another.
  • The order that our mind imagines is like a ladder, built to attain something. But afterward you must throw the ladder away because you discover that even if it was useful it was meaningless.
  • The psychics offer wonders and endless possibilities in a world that often seems difficult and mundane but it's the scientists who have actually delivered the things that improve human life.
  • More than any time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter helplessness, the other to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.
  • No matter how educated or enlightened a person may think they are, when faced with the primal nature of a mobbing most people will betray their own principles and move to the safety of power.
  • When I am weaker than you, I ask you for freedom because that is according to your principles; when I am stronger than you, I take away your freedom because that is according to my principles.
  • Theory is when you know something, but it doesn’t work. Practice is when something works, but you don’t know why. Programmers combine theory and practice: Nothing works and they don’t know why.
  • An expert is somebody who knows more and more about less and less, until he knows everything about nothing. I find I know less and less about more and more until I know nothing about everything.
  • I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it.
  • Science is a way to call the bluff of those who only pretend to knowledge. It is a bulwark against mysticism, against superstition, against religion misapplied to where it has no business being.
  • Sociology is just applied Psychology which is just applied Biology which is just applied Chemistry which is just applied Physics which is just applied Mathematics which is just applied Software.
  • Some of the most vocal critics of the way things are being done are people who have done nothing themselves, and whose only contributions to society are their complaints and moral exhibitionism.

  • This is as true in everyday life as it is in battle: We are given one life and the decision is ours whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind, or whether to act and, in acting, to live.
  • Say no. Say no to anyone or anything that will waste your time. Say no to anyone who is negative. Say no to anyone who wants you to work for free. Say no to all the vampires who want to suck you dry.

  • Wherever we want to go, we go. That’s what a ship is, you know. It’s not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails. That’s what a ship needs. But what a ship is, what the Black Pearl really is, is freedom.
  • I (but someone said it) didn't (I definitely didn't say it) say (but I implied it) she (but someone stole it) stole (but she did something with it) my (she stole someone else's) money (she took something else).

  • You're saying that the responsibility for avoiding miscommunication lies entirely with the listener, not the speaker, which explains why you haven't been able to convince anyone to help you down from that wall.
  • This is one of the hardest lessons for humans to learn. We cannot admit that things might be neither good nor evil, neither cruel nor kind, but simply callous - indifferent to all suffering, lacking all purpose.
  • In the end, religion is like having a penis. It's ok to have one, and it's ok to be proud of it. But if you're going to take it out and attempt to shove it down my throat, we are going to have a bit of a problem.
  • There are things you remember that happened and things that happened you can't remember. There are some things you remember that didn't happen and all the other things you can't remember because they didn't happen.

  • Never give in. Never, never, never. In nothing, great or small, large or petty. Never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy. Never give in.
  • The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. Instead of altering their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit their views ... which can be very uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering.
  • But when this kind of vicious attack comes from nowhere at all and at no point connects with any kind of reality then, if someone can explain how it arose, it actually gives one a sense that the universe perhaps is in some small way reasonable again.

  • What information consumes is rather obvious: It consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence, a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.
  • Isn't it strange that princes and kings and clowns that caper in sawdust rings, and ordinary folks like you and me are builders of eternity? To each is given a bag of tools, an hour-glass and a book of rules; and each must build, ere time is flown, a stumbling block or a stepping stone.
  • What can you think that no one else can think? Think that. What can you say that no one else can say? Say that. What can you write that no one else can write? Write that. What can you invent that no one else can invent? Invent that. What can you build that no one else can build? Build that.
  • If you can keep your head when others are losing theirs. If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you. If you can dream and not make dreams your master. If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster. If all men count with you, but none too much. Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it.
  • I will not sacrifice the Enterprise. We've made too many compromises already; too many retreats. They invade our space and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far, no further! And I will make them pay for what they've done.
  • We shall go on to the end. We shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our land, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.
  • It often happens that after being hard at work, and having arrived at results that are perfectly clear and satisfactory to myself, when I try to express them I feel that I must begin by putting myself upon quite another intellectual place. I have to translate my thoughts into a language that does not run very evenly with them.
  • A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship. But it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the age of Men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand! Men of the West!
  • A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
  • These things you should know: Know that you were warned. Know that we pleaded for your help. Know that you will be remembered and counted among our plentiful persecutors. Know that you are culpable for what happens next. Know that while you may win in the moment you will lose in eternity. Also know this: We will live and will go on living forever.
  • In the development of the understanding of complex phenomena, the most powerful tool available to the human intellect is abstraction. Abstraction arises from the recognition of similarities between certain objects, situations, or processes in the real world and the decision to concentrate on these similarities and to ignore, for the time being, their differences.
  • Explaining is a difficult art. You can explain something so that your reader understands the words; and you can explain something so that the reader feels it in the marrow of his bones. To do the latter, it sometimes isn't enough to lay the evidence before the reader in a dispassionate way. You have to become an advocate and use the tricks of the advocate's trade.
  • One of the ways you control what people think is by creating the illusion that there’s a debate going on, but making sure that that debate stays within very narrow margins. Namely, you have to make sure that both sides in the debate accept certain assumptions, and those assumptions turn out to be the propaganda system. As long as everyone accepts the propaganda system, then you can have a debate.
  • If names be not correct, language is not in accordance with the truth of things. If language be not in accordance with the truth of things, affairs cannot be conducted successfully. When affairs cannot be conducted successfully, propriety will not flourish. When propriety does not flourish, punishments will not be properly meted out. When punishments are not properly meted out, the people will not know how to conduct themselves.
